Correlation Mark, Xerox® GlossMark®, Xerox® Infrared Text and Xerox®

FluorescentMark add levels of security to both your static and Variable Information (VI) jobs by making it difficult to counterfeit them. Also, using multiple effects – including visible ones – on an application makes reproducing it more costly than purchasing the original.

Xerox® MicroText Mark

Use this to create characters that are only one-one hundredth of an inch high. They look to be small dots when viewed by the naked eye. Using a loupe or magnifying glass reveals the content printed. In this example, the ticket price and seat location are embedded as micro text.

Xerox® Correlation Mark

This two-layer Correlation Mark appears as a tinted box. By placing a “key” transparency on the box and moving it from side to side, the first layer of content is decoded. Turn the transparency over and the second layer of information is revealed. In this example, we see the person’s last name and, after turning the transparency, a first name.

Xerox® GlossMark® Text

When viewed straight on, GlossMark Text is not visible. But as the printed page is tilted and viewed at different angles in the light, the glossy content is revealed.

Xerox® FluorescentMark Text

This mark appears as a speckled, coloured box. The content is virtually impossible to decipher under normal light. But when a UV or black light is scanned over the box, the content becomes visible, such as the ticket price and seat location in this example.
