Description

Background Art

[0001] In a printed product on a carrier material, such as paper, which reproduces a subject or a subject image and is used to form an interlaced image that reproduces the subject image, the problem of distorted reproduction of the subject image caused by the interlacing on the finished interlaced image occurs.

[0002] In a printed product or in a printing method based on stored data of a printed subject image based on the printed product, the printed product or its properties can be produced in a correspondingly adapted manner by means of the printing method. Summary of the invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to advantageously provide a method, a printed product and an interlaced image. In particular, it is possible to provide a printed product which is used, for example, in a process kit and for producing an interlaced image, from which the subject image, for example a realistic image, is reproduced almost perfectly after interlacing of the printed strips.

[0004] This object is achieved by the independent claim. The dependent claims relate to expedient and advantageous developments of the invention.

[0005] The invention relates to a method for producing a printed product by a printing method, wherein the printed product comprises a thin carrier material, wherein an electronically provided printing file is called up, which provides data for a subject image. Various printing methods that can be used for this method are conceivable as the printing method. For example, digital printing methods or any other printing methods for image production are suitable for this method.

[0006] For the method, the printed products that can be produced thereby and the interlaced images that can be composed of the printed products can use different printable materials as carrier materials. For example, relatively thin media or materials, such as flat surfaces, can be used. For example, carrier materials based on plant fibers, such as paper fiber materials or paper carrier materials, or carrier materials based on wood materials, or carrier materials based on plastics, or carrier materials based on metal materials, or carrier materials based on textile products, or carrier materials based on composite materials or composite materials can be used.

[0007] The thickness of the carrier material, which is usually uniform over the two-dimensional extension of the carrier material, is, for example, between a fraction of a millimeter and, for example, a maximum of two millimeters.

[0008] The core of the present invention is, two printing areas are printed on a carrier material by means of a printing file, the two printing areas being different from one another, wherein the two printing areas are each formed by data of a subject image and each printing area reproduces the subject image at least partially. The printed product is produced in such a way that it is used to form a two-dimensional interlaced image from perpendicularly intersecting and interlaced longitudinal strips and transverse strips, wherein based on a Cartesian coordinate system having a first coordinate direction, such as a longitudinal direction or a transverse direction, and a second coordinate direction, wherein the first coordinate direction and the second coordinate direction are perpendicular to one another, the interlaced image has a first coordinate direction of longitudinal strips parallel to one another and a second coordinate direction of transverse strips parallel to one another, wherein the longitudinal strips and the transverse strips can be generated by the printed product as strips of carrier material that are independent of one another in the strip longitudinal direction and are printed. The visible side of the interlaced interlaced image is visible to a person as a reproduction of the subject image on which it is based, wherein a first printing area of ​​the printed product is produced, wherein a second printing area of ​​the printed product is produced, so that all longitudinal strips extending parallel to the first coordinate direction of the interlaced image are generated by the first printing area, wherein all transverse strips extending parallel to the second coordinate direction of the interlaced image are generated by the second printing area. The first printing area of ​​the printed product and the second printing area of ​​the printed product are formed in such a way that the subject image is completely and accurately reproduced on the visible side of the interlaced image in the finished interlaced image, wherein the entire subject image is divided into a plurality of quadrilateral image segments, wherein the first printing area is used to provide all longitudinal strips, the longitudinal axes of which extend along the first coordinate direction. The same spacing on the longitudinal strip is always considered between two adjacent image segments on the longitudinal strip along the first coordinate direction, wherein the spacing is related to the material thickness of the carrier material. For example, all longitudinal strips in the first printing area uniformly have the same spacing. The spacing is achieved, for example, by strip-shaped areas on the longitudinal strips. The spacing is calculated and is always the same between two adjacent image segments along the longitudinal strip in the longitudinal direction of the longitudinal strip considered or all longitudinal strips. This relates to the first printing area.

[0009] For example, the distance that can be predetermined by the method is related to the material thickness of the carrier material and / or the flexural strength of the carrier material. For example, additionally or alternatively, other, for example technical or mechanical, properties of the carrier material also determine the value of the distance.

[0010] The distance is, for example, 0.98 mm in the case of a thickness of the paper carrier material of, for example, 0.14 mm and a factor of 7, which is multiplied by the thickness value.

[0011] The spacings at the longitudinal strips are, for example, in the range of 5% to 15% of the length of the image segment.

[0012] The calculated image segments are printed one after the other in longitudinal and transverse strips in the longitudinal direction or are present in the printed product.

[0013] This solves the problem of image shifts or subject image shifts at the transitions from one image segment to the mutually adjoining edges of the adjacent image segment. Otherwise, if two identical images with the same subject image are to be printed, the first image is cut into parallel longitudinal strips and the second image is cut into parallel transverse strips, which are then interlaced at right angles, an image shift would occur, resulting in a distorted display of the subject image.

[0014] For example, two printing areas differ from one another in size, for example in a longitudinal dimension and / or in a width dimension and / or in the printed content or in the representation of the respective printing area visible to human vision.

[0015] The entire subject image is, for example, divided into a plurality of image segments.

[0016] By predetermining and producing a plurality of precalculated image segments, possible deviations in the subsequent interlaced image can be corrected. Otherwise visible deviations are taken into account in the circumferential path of the two interlaced strip segments formed by the carrier material. The calculation of the deviations and the associated correction by the spacing on all longitudinal strips are based on material factors of the carrier material and / or technical factors of the carrier material, wherein the circumferential path is taken into account. Material factors and / or technical factors of the carrier material influence the circumferential path and thus the otherwise visible deviations on the visible side of the interlaced image when the strips are interlaced. Technical factors of the carrier material are, for example, the mechanical properties of the carrier material under the load of the carrier material.

[0017] The circumferential path is dependent, for example, on the strength or thickness of the carrier material, for example, if the carrier material is, for example, a paper carrier material, on the paper strength or paper thickness.

[0018] The winding path is related, for example, to the properties of the carrier material, for example, with regard to its deformation behavior during interlacing. The winding path is related, for example, to the bending strength of the carrier material. If the carrier material is, for example, a paper carrier material, the winding path is related, for example, to the bending strength of the paper.

[0019] For example, a plurality of quadrilateral segments are defined on the printed side or visible side of each of the strips, for example the longitudinal strips and the transverse strips. The quadrilateral segments each define an image segment of the entire subject image with precise location.

[0020] Here, the quadrilateral segments appear alternately on the strips in their longitudinal direction. For example, on the transverse strips, in the first longitudinal direction, the quadrilateral segment provided by the relevant strip or transverse strip in the subsequent interlaced image is followed by the next quadrilateral segment, which is provided by the strip perpendicular to the transverse strip, i.e. the longitudinal strip, as a visible quadrilateral segment of the interlaced image. Then, on the transverse strip, the following quadrilateral segment is followed again, which is provided by the transverse strip in the subsequent interlaced image by its own transverse strip as a visible quadrilateral segment of the interlaced image.

[0021] All other horizontal strips are similarly arranged.

[0022] In all longitudinal strips, too, a quadrilateral segment appears as a visible quadrilateral segment of the subsequent interlaced image, alternating with the visible quadrilateral segments of the subsequent interlaced image formed by the transverse strips.

[0023] The quadrilateral sections of the subsequent interlaced image which are not visible on the strips are, for example, only partially printed, completely printed or not printed at all.

[0024] In partial printing, for example, the central area of ​​the quadrilateral segment which is not visible in the interlaced image is not printed or is printed in a uniform color, for example white, or is provided with another printing, for example different from the subject image. The edge areas of the quadrilateral segment, for example the edge area surrounding the central area, are printed, for example, in accordance with the subject image present there. This eliminates possible visually noticeable image defects or gaps in the subsequent interlaced image at the locations between adjacent strips in the subsequent interlaced image.

[0025] The continuous printing of longitudinal and / or transverse strips is not excluded, for example the continuous printing of all image sections based on the subject image.

[0026] The longitudinal strips or their longitudinal axes are oriented perpendicularly to the transverse strips or their longitudinal axes. For example, all longitudinal strips are oriented perpendicularly to the transverse strips, in particular all transverse strips. The longitudinal strips are oriented with their respective longitudinal axes perpendicularly to the respective longitudinal axes of the transverse strips with respect to a Cartesian coordinate system or an interlaced image.

[0027] For example, the entire visible side of the interlaced image is formed only by image segments on the longitudinal strips and by image segments on the transverse strips, for example only by image segments on the longitudinal strips and on the transverse strips. For example, the area to which the spacing between two image segments on the longitudinal strips belongs is not part of the visible part of the interlaced image.

[0028] Interlaced images are based on a double strip system: vertical and horizontal strips alternately surround just one other strip at the bottom and top, and so on.

[0029] For example, the spacing is calculated from the thickness of the carrier material multiplied by the following factor, wherein the factor assumes a value between 5.5 and 8.5. The same spacing between two adjacent image sections in the first coordinate direction in the longitudinal strip is always considered to be the same spacing in the longitudinal strip, which is calculated from a first factor between 5.5 and 8.5 and a second factor depending on the thickness of the carrier material by multiplying these two factors. This achieves an almost ideal visual effect of the interlaced image formed.

[0030] Exemplarily, the printing area is generated such that the entire subject image is divided into a plurality of quadrilateral image segments in the finished interlaced image, wherein some outer edges of the image segments extend parallel to the second coordinate direction and other outer edges of the image segments extend parallel to the first coordinate direction.

[0031] For example, all image segments of the completed interlaced image are formed by image segments on the longitudinal strips and image segments on the transverse strips. For example, the interlaced image is formed only by image segments on the longitudinal strips and image segments on the transverse strips.

[0032] On the visible side of the subsequent interlaced image, image segments are realized which, for example, alternate in the corresponding coordinate direction and, for conventional paper materials, differ, for example, in the range of one tenth of a millimeter. In this case, all image segments provided by the longitudinal strips in the interlaced image are identical in size to one another. In this case, all image segments provided by the transverse strips in the interlaced image are identical in size to one another.

[0033] For example, all visible quadrilaterals on the interlaced image are square or rectangular, with long sides and shorter wide sides. Alternatively, rectangular quadrilaterals and square quadrilaterals are formed on the interlaced image. The visible rectangle has two opposite sides. For example, in the completed interlaced image, the wide sides of the quadrilaterals on the longitudinal strips are adjacent to the long sides of the quadrilaterals on the transverse strips. Correspondingly, in the completed interlaced image, the long sides of the quadrilaterals on the longitudinal strips are adjacent to the wide sides of the quadrilaterals on the transverse strips.

[0034] For example, a visible quadrilateral of the interlaced image formed by the longitudinal strips is different in side length from a side length of a quadrilateral formed by the transverse strips on the interlaced image. For example, the long side of the quadrilateral on the longitudinal strips extends along a first coordinate direction. For example, a visible quadrilateral of the interlaced image formed by the longitudinal strips, for example, along a first coordinate direction, has a longer side than a long side of a quadrilateral extending along the second coordinate direction and formed by the transverse strips on the interlaced image.

[0035] For example, all visible quadrilaterals formed by the longitudinal strips on the interlaced image are identical or nearly identical to each other.

[0036] For example, all visible quadrilaterals formed by the transverse strips on the interlaced image are identical or nearly identical to each other.

[0037] For example, all visible quadrilaterals formed by the longitudinal stripes on the interlaced image have longer sides than the longer sides of the quadrilaterals formed by the transverse stripes.

[0038] For example, all image segments of the subject image that make up the subject image are formed by the whole of all image segments on the longitudinal strips and all image segments on the transverse strips. For example, the entire visible interlaced image is formed only by the whole of all image segments on the longitudinal strips and on the transverse strips. In other words, the areas on the longitudinal strips and on the transverse strips that are present between the segments facing outwards on the visible side in the interlaced image are not visible on the visible side in the finished interlaced image, in particular are covered by other strips.

[0039] The longitudinal edges of two adjacent longitudinal strips, for example, facing each other, are formed adjacent to each other. The longitudinal edges of two adjacent longitudinal strips, for example, facing each other, are formed directly adjacent to each other. For example, the longitudinal strips are formed directly adjacent to each other with longitudinal edges facing each other and extending in the first coordinate direction. This relates to the first printing area. For example, in the first printing area there is a slightly smaller thickness of the separation line between two adjacent longitudinal strips in the longitudinal direction of the strips or in the first coordinate direction of the longitudinal strips or in the longitudinal direction of the longitudinal strips.

[0040] For example, in the first printing area, the size of the printing area along the second coordinate direction, such as the width size, does not change relative to the width size of the subject image on which it is based. For example, in the first printing area, the size of the printing area along the second coordinate direction, such as the width size, has a relatively small interference size compared to the width size of the subject image on which it is based. The relatively small interference size of the first printing area along the second coordinate direction is predetermined, for example, by electronic image processing of the first printing area, wherein the first printing area forms a longitudinal strip. The relatively small interference size of the first printing area along the second coordinate direction is, for example, related to the total width of the subject image along this direction. The relatively small interference size of the first printing area along the second coordinate direction is, for example, between 0.06% and 0.33%. For example, the interference size of the first printing area along the second coordinate direction is between 0.1 and 0.5 mm at a subject image width of 15.5 cm.

[0041] For example, an intermediate strip consisting of the carrier material of the second printing area is formed between two transverse strips in the first coordinate direction. The intermediate strip is not printed, partially printed or completely printed. In the second printing area, for example, the same spacing is achieved by the intermediate strip between all adjacent transverse strips. The intermediate strip is printed, for example, as an overprint, for example to compensate for production differences. The corresponding, for example, same width of the intermediate strip extending parallel between two adjacent transverse strips is, for example, between 10% and 40% of the width of the transverse strip, which width is transverse to the longitudinal extension of the transverse strip or is obtained in the first coordinate direction.

[0042] Thus, for example, two transverse strips in the first coordinate direction are formed at a distance from each other by the intermediate strip. The distance is realized, for example, according to the width of the intermediate strip in the first coordinate direction. The distance helps, for example, to more easily separate the transverse strip from the second printing area, for example with the aid of scissors, and / or to facilitate the subsequent interweaving process of the longitudinal strips with the transverse strips to form an interweaved image.

[0043] Advantageously, the area on the longitudinal strip or on the transverse strip is not printed or at least partially not printed or not printed depending on the theme image, wherein this area is not reproduced on the visible side of the interwoven image.

[0044] Areas which are not reproduced on the visible side of the interlaced image are printed, for example, in white or in another color which contrasts with the adjacent sections.

[0045] The invention relates to a printed product consisting of a carrier material to be printed, wherein the printed product is manufactured according to a printing method based on data of a subject image, wherein the printed product has two printing areas on the carrier material, the two printing areas are different from each other, wherein the two printing areas are respectively formed by data of the subject image, and each printing area reproduces the subject image at least partially, wherein the printed product is used to form a planar interlaced image from vertically crossed and interlaced longitudinal strips and transverse strips, the interlaced image having a first coordinate direction of the longitudinal strips parallel to each other and a second coordinate direction of the transverse strips parallel to each other, wherein the longitudinal strips and the transverse strips can be generated by the printed product as strips of the carrier material that are independent of each other in the longitudinal direction of the strips and are printed, wherein the visible side of the interlaced interlaced image is visible to a person as the subject image on which it is based. Reproduction is visible, wherein all longitudinal strips extending parallel to a first coordinate direction of the interlaced image can be generated by a first printing area, wherein all transverse strips extending parallel to a second coordinate direction of the interlaced image can be generated by a second printing area, wherein the first printing area of ​​the printed product and the second printing area of ​​the printed product are formed in such a coordinated manner that the subject image is completely and accurately reproduced on the visible side of the interlaced image in the finished interlaced image, wherein the entire subject image is divided into a plurality of quadrilateral image segments, wherein the first printing area is used to provide all longitudinal strips, the longitudinal axes of which extend along the first coordinate direction, wherein the same spacing on the longitudinal strip is always considered between two adjacent image segments on the longitudinal strip along the first coordinate direction, wherein the spacing is related to the material thickness of the carrier material.

[0046] The printed product is produced, for example, by means of a digital printing method. The printed product is printed or produced, for example, according to one of the above-described methods.

[0047] This provides a basis for producing an interlaced image from longitudinal and transverse strips, wherein the underlying interlaced image can be reproduced ideally. For example, in the production of an interlaced image from crossed and interlaced printed strips, the printed product is used as the starting product for a craft kit for handmade craft entertainment.

[0048] The two printing areas have, for example, areas of the carrier material which are connected to the strips at the longitudinal end sides and / or at the transverse end sides. This is used, for example, to fix the strips and the printing areas on the carrier material and to allow for better handling when producing the interlaced image.

[0049] The printed product has, for example, a first printed area and a second printed area on a carrier material, the first printed area and the second printed area being different from each other, wherein the two printed areas are based on a common subject image, wherein the first printed area can provide longitudinal strips consisting of the carrier material, wherein the second printed area can provide transverse strips consisting of the carrier material, so that the longitudinal strips and transverse strips of the printed product can form a planar interlaced image formed by vertically intersecting and interlaced longitudinal and transverse strips, wherein in the finished interlaced image the subject image is completely and accurately reproduced on the visible side of the interlaced image.

[0050] Exemplarily, the longitudinal strips are parallel to the first coordinate direction. Exemplarily, the transverse strips are parallel to the second coordinate direction.

[0051] Furthermore, by way of example, the longitudinal strips have opposite parallel longitudinal edges which separate adjacent areas of the printed product.

[0052] The opposite parallel longitudinal edges of the longitudinal strips are, for example, cut off. The opposite parallel longitudinal edges of the longitudinal strips are, for example, prepared in such a way that the longitudinal strips are cut off on both sides along the longitudinal direction from suitable areas of the carrier material, for example from adjacent edges of adjacent longitudinal strips, over their length.

[0053] The transverse strips have, for example, opposite parallel longitudinal edges which separate adjacent areas of the printed product.

[0054] The opposite parallel longitudinal edges of the transverse strips are cut off, for example. The opposite parallel longitudinal edges of the transverse strips are prepared, for example, in such a way that the transverse strips are cut off on both sides along the longitudinal direction from suitable areas of the carrier material, for example from adjacent edges of adjacent intermediate strips, over their length. For example, intermediate strips are present between two adjacent transverse strips in all transverse strips. For example, all intermediate strips between two adjacent transverse strips in the second printing area have the same strip width as one another.

[0055] For example, the end faces of the longitudinal strips are connected to the region of the printed product adjoining the longitudinal strips. The region of the printed product is formed, for example, by the carrier material.

[0056] For example, two opposite longitudinal ends of a longitudinal strip are connected to adjacent areas of the printed product.

[0057] For example, the longitudinal strips remain on the first printed area and are each connected at the end sides to the surrounding carrier material.

[0058] For example, both longitudinal ends of the longitudinal strips, for example all longitudinal strips, are connected to the carrier material, and each longitudinal strip is severed from the carrier material on both sides over its entire length.

[0059] The generation of the interlaced image and the processing of the printed product are thereby simplified.

[0060] For example, the end faces of the transverse strips are connected to the region of the printed product adjoining the transverse strips. The region of the printed product is formed, for example, by a carrier material.

[0061] This provides a favorable structure for subsequent interlaced images.

[0062] For example, both longitudinal ends of the transverse strips, for example all of the transverse strips, are connected to the carrier material and each transverse strip is severed from the carrier material over its entire length on both sides.

[0063] To produce an interlaced image, for example only the transverse strips are also separated on both sides at the end sides from the carrier material which surrounds the second printed area and the resulting transverse strips are interlaced with parallel longitudinal strips lying next to one another.

[0064] For example, in the extension of the end of the longitudinal strip and / or in the extension of the end of the transverse strip there is a marking which allows a visually recognizable assignment of the respective longitudinal strip or transverse strip with respect to its position in the first and / or second coordinate direction. This simplifies the subsequent production of the interlaced image.

[0065] For example, it is also the case that information is printed outside the area of ​​the longitudinal stripes and / or outside the area of ​​the transverse stripes.

[0066] The information is used, for example, to assist in generating an interlaced image, for example, by distinguishing or assigning longitudinal or transverse strips in the interlaced image by means of row numbers and / or color markings of corresponding transverse and / or longitudinal strips.

[0067] Finally, an interlaced image formed by strips of a carrier material is proposed, wherein the planar interlaced image is formed by vertically crossed and interlaced longitudinal strips and transverse strips, the interlaced image having a first coordinate direction of the longitudinal strips parallel to each other and a second coordinate direction of the transverse strips parallel to each other, wherein the longitudinal strips and the transverse strips are generated by a printed product as strips of carrier material that are independent of each other and printed in the longitudinal direction of the strips, wherein the visible side of the interlaced interlaced image is visible to a person as a reproduction of the subject image on which it is based, wherein the printed product has a first printing area from which all longitudinal strips extending parallel to the first coordinate direction of the interlaced image can be generated, wherein the printed product has a second printing area A brush area, from which all transverse strips extending parallel to a second coordinate direction of the interlaced image can be generated, wherein the first printing area of ​​the printed product and the second printing area of ​​the printed product are formed in such a coordinated manner that the subject image is completely and accurately reproduced on the visible side of the interlaced image in the finished interlaced image, wherein the entire subject image is divided into a plurality of quadrilateral image segments, wherein the first printing area is used to provide all longitudinal strips, the longitudinal axes of which extend along the first coordinate direction, wherein the same spacing on the longitudinal strip is always considered between two adjacent image segments on the longitudinal strip along the first coordinate direction, wherein the spacing is related to the material thickness of the carrier material.

[0068] The interlaced images almost perfectly reproduce the subject image that the film is based on.

[0069] For example, two printing areas are respectively formed of data of a subject image, and each printing area reproduces an image section of the subject image.

[0070] For example, a frame-shaped outer edge of the interlaced image is provided, which is connected to the longitudinal ends of the longitudinal strips and the longitudinal ends of the transverse strips, thereby achieving an aesthetic overall impression of the finished interlaced image. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0071] Other features and advantages of the present invention are specifically described with reference to the embodiments. It is shown in detail:

[0072] Figure 1 The first printing area of ​​the printed product,

[0073] Figure 2 a second printing area of ​​the printed product, and

[0074] Figure 3 According to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The interlaced image formed by the printed areas. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0075] Figure 1 and2 A printed product 1 produced by a printing method is shown, wherein the printed product 1 comprises a thin carrier material 2 , wherein an electronically provided printing file is called up, which provides the data of a subject image 3 .

[0076] The printed product 1 comprises two printing areas, namely a first printing area 4 and a second printing area 5 , which are formed by the printing area of ​​the carrier material 2 .

[0077] The two printing areas 4 and 5 differ from each other in size or dimension and in printed content. The two printing areas 4, 5 are each formed from data of a subject image 3. Each of the two printing areas 4 and 5 partially reproduces the subject image 3 in a plurality of quadrilateral sections or image sections of the subject image 3.

[0078] The printed product 1 is used to form a planar interlaced image 6 from vertically intersecting and interlaced longitudinal strips 7 and transverse strips 8. The longitudinal strips 7 parallel to each other are, for example, of equal length and width. The longitudinal strips 7 include, for example, longitudinal strips 7.1 to 7.13.

[0079] The mutually parallel transverse strips 8 are, for example, of equal length and equal width. The transverse strips 8 include, for example, transverse strips 8.1 to 8.17.

[0080] Based on a Cartesian coordinate system, a strip arrangement consisting of longitudinal strips 7 and transverse strips 8 is defined.

[0081] The Cartesian coordinate system includes a first coordinate direction and a second coordinate direction. The first coordinate direction and the second coordinate direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0082] The coordinate system comprises, for example, a longitudinal direction L and, for example, a transverse direction Q, wherein L and Q are perpendicular to each other.

[0083] The longitudinal strips 7 are oriented in the first coordinate direction L and the transverse strips 8 are oriented in the second coordinate direction Q. The longitudinal strips 7 and the transverse strips 8 can be produced from the printed product 4 or 5 as mutually independent and printed strips of carrier material in the longitudinal strip direction.

[0084] For example, in the case of common paper carrier materials and image formats, for example in the DIN-A4 or DIN-A3 format, the width b of the first printing area 4 in the second coordinate direction Q (see Figure 1 ) is greater than the width of the original subject image or the subject image on which it is based, for example by a value between 0.1 and 0.5 mm. The additional width is the same from the image center BM to the corresponding end points of the width of the first printing area 4. The width b of the first printing area 4 is generated electronically. This results in electronic image distortion.

[0085] For example, in the case of common paper carrier materials and image formats, such as the DIN-A4 or DIN-A3 format, the length l of the first printed area 4 in the first coordinate direction L is greater than the length of the original subject image or the subject image on which it is based by a value of, for example, 0.5 millimeters. For example, this compensates or can compensate for the loop path in the subsequent interlaced image. The length l of the first printed area 4 is generated electronically. This results in electronic image distortions.

[0086] For example, in the case of common paper carrier materials and image formats, such as the DIN-A4 or DIN-A3 format, the width b1 of the second printed area 5 in the second coordinate direction Q is greater than the width of the original subject image or the subject image based on it, for example, by a value between 0.1 and 1.5 mm. The difference in width relative to the original subject image is related, for example, to the total width of the subject image and / or the paper strength and / or the bending strength of the paper. This compensates or can compensate, for example, for differences in the wraparound path.

[0087] Figure 3 The visible side 6 of the interlaced image of the finished interlacing shown in is visible to a person as a display of the subject image 3 or as a nearly identical display of the underlying subject image 3 .

[0088] All longitudinal stripes 7 of the interlaced image 6 extending parallel to the first coordinate direction L are generated with the first printing area 4. All transverse stripes 8 of the interlaced image 6 extending parallel to the second coordinate direction Q are generated with the second printing area 5.
