Add Security to Every Printed Document
MECCA 2000 contains a comprehensive set of design tools to add copy-resistant graphical safeguards to certificates, coupons, titles,tickets, monetary or legal documents, and other valuable forms, labels, and tags. Our fine-line relief backgrounds with microtext, phantomimages, and PixeLace™ moiré patterns are easy to create and virtually impossible to duplicate. ‘‘Void’’ pantograph technologies using publicdomain and proprietary methods are also available.

Amgraf’s LogoDot ™ (Patent Pending) Security Document Technology
Capture any image such as a corporate logo, a photograph, or a key word or phrase, and convert that image into a LogoDot halftonedot that replaces conventional round dots typically used in normal commercial printing. When compared to conventional halftone dots,LogoDots are much more difficult to faithfully reproduce with commercial photocopiers and scanners, resulting in easily detectable copies.
