Abstract
A sheet assembly of an adhesive backed computer printer paper. The paper sheet is die cut (52) to allow an image area (50) to be separated from the margin (54). The paper is mounted on a backing sheet (58) that allows easy removal of the image area (50). The sheet assembly may be used in any computer printer. A method for using standard computers, software, and printers, for adjusting the margin (54), printing multiple page images on multiple sheets and displaying the images. Using standard, full page envelopes, multiple page images can be mailed then assembled for viewing at a remote location.
Claims10
A sheet assembly for multiple sheet image display comprising:
- a backing sheet having a release surface;
- and
- a generally rectangular paper sheet with four edges having a repositionable adhesive coating applied to a backside of the paper sheet, with the adhesive coating adjacent to the release surface of the backing sheet, the paper sheet having a plurality of cuts forming a single rectangular image area having edges defined by the one or more cuts, wherein
- (i) the plurality of cuts are positioned to permit a personal computer printer to print substantially up to the plurality of cuts within the image area,
- (ii) none of the plurality of cuts extend substantially into the image area and
- (iii) each of the cuts of the plurality of cuts is substantially parallel to at least one edge of the four edges.
A method for using standard personal computer software, hardware, and printer to produce a multiple page image on a plurality of sheet assemblies each sheet assembly comprising a backing sheet or sheets having a release surface, a paper sheet having a repositionable adhesive coating thereon mounted on the backing sheet, with the adhesive abutting the release surface of the backing sheet, the paper sheet having a die cut or a plurality of perforations forming a single rectangular center image area having edges defined by the die cut or the perforations and a margin area, with the die cut or perforations extending through the paper sheet but not the backing sheet, the method comprising the steps of:
- manipulating the multiple page image on the standard computer hardware with the standard software that allows printing margin adjustment;
- adjusting the margins in the software used for image manipulation to conform each page of the multiple page image to the image area of the sheet assembly;
- printing a complete image on the plurality of sheet assemblies in a standard computer printer.
