Definitions

• the invention relates to a personalization method for generating at least one wave-shaped character image from at least one row arranged characters on a plastic or paper substrate of a security document, in particular a personal passport, and a personalized security document according to the O- berbegriffen of claims 1 and 13.
• security features are usually applied to the paper side or the paper substrate and / or onto or into the plastic film or the plastic substrate. or introduced.
• security features such as tilting images, which are arranged within the plastic substrate to give rise to different images at different angles of tilt of the document with respect to the viewing direction.
• UV images or so-called micro-lettering.
• Such a micro-typeface is characterized in that the text thus written, which as a rule consists of letters and numbers or numbers, can not be read by the naked eye, but rather can only be recognized as a line.
• the text thus written which as a rule consists of letters and numbers or numbers, can not be read by the naked eye, but rather can only be recognized as a line.
• such micro-lettering during the printing process when printing a background of the paper side mitaufmony by an inkjet printer, wherein the paper side is then welded or laminated in the plastic film.
• the The paper-covering plastic film is mirror-inverted by means of the inkjet printer with the image to be printed and then applied to the paper side, for example in the form of a lamination.
• microfonts are designed for fake security reasons not only as straight lines, but also wavy, it should be noted that the naked eye recognizes the micro-lettering only as a line.
• An essential point of the invention is that in a personalization method for generating at least one wavy character image from at least one row arranged characters on a plastic or paper substrate of a security document, in particular a passport, the following steps are applied: Selecting specific personal data from an amount of stored personal data associated with a particular person,
• the personalized security document produced by means of such a method which has at least one plastic or paper substrate, is characterized in that the plastic or paper substrate contains a wavy and one-row or multi-row character image with person-specific data burnt on its surface by means of the laser device.
• the steps of associating at least part of the selected person-specific data with predeterminable positions, programming a laser device and burning in the characters based on the character image data are preferably repeated until all the wel Lenovo real character image is burned. It can therefore be calculated separately before burning or applying or engraving the wave-shaped microtext lettering the respective position of each character or any number or part of characters or numbers and then a burn / Apply / Engrave done before the position another number is calculated.
• the particular person-specific data which may include at least one character assigned to a particular position and branded, then assign another character of another position and burn this before a third character is calculated in position, etc ..
• At the end of such a repetitive process flow is a wavy lettering from the micro-typed, which contains individual personal data that may contain additional or anyway from the rest of the security document resulting information about the person.
• the characters which letters, digits and the like characters, as they are known, for example, from the keyboard of a PC, allow the preparation of a tamper-proof personalization document or personalized security document, since on the one hand, a simple copy process only creates a copied line and on the other hand, the information contained in the microtext is not readable without the aid of aids, such as enlargers.
• the characters are arranged in text lines arranged one below the other.
• the characters can be arranged in juxtaposed text columns. This results in a readable text of formulated words that may include, for example, the name of the person and other personalization data.
• the characters can at least partially contain color gradations, so that color contours and color transitions, even when using black and white Illustrations may be within a character such as a letter.
• the character size of the individual characters can be selected depending on the desired persons producing these security documents themselves.
• the character sizes and possibly also the resolution of each character can be set individually to create, for example, wavy lettering with steadily decreasing letters, so that the individual rows of waves are getting smaller until their complete disappearance.
• the size of the characters within a row of waves or a micro-text string can increase and decrease as often as desired.
• the amplitude and the frequency of the microtext ripple waves can increase and decrease as often as desired within a series of waves and, if appropriate, be of different sizes, even if the individual wave rows are arranged one below the other.
• an image such as the image of a person, is additionally baked in the region of the character image, so that the person image is superimposed by the wave-shaped microtext, which may be formed, for example, in four rows.
• a CO 2 laser for burning the characters based on the character image data into the plastic substrate is used.
• any other laser that is capable of removing parts on the surface of the plastic substrate can alternatively be used.
• an excimer laser which works in the ultraviolet range and can ablate material parts without heating the material by ablation, to mention.
• a thermal direct printing method or a retransfer printing method can be used both in monochrome monochrome and in full color for transferring the characters or the character image data onto the plastic film substrate.
• a marking laser can engrave the characters with a font size of 0.4 mm and - if desired - with a font size of 0.2 mm.
• the personalized security document according to the invention such as a passport for a person, thus has the plastic substrate and / or the paper substrate with a character image containing person-specific data, wherein the character image is wave-shaped and is preferably formed in multiple rows by mutually arranged character waves.
• the plastic substrate may be formed both single-layered and double-layered for receiving a paper substrate arranged therebetween.
• the arrangement of the character image on the inside of one of the plastic substrates or both plastic substrates, ie on the side facing the paper substrate lends itself to reducing the risk of tampering with the character image introduced into the plastic substrate ,
• the plastic substrate may be colorless, so transparent, or colored with different shades of color or monochrome.
• FIG. 1 shows a representation of a section of a personalized security document according to the invention with character images according to a first embodiment of the invention
• FIG. 2 shows an illustration of a section of the personalized security document produced according to the invention with a character image according to a second embodiment of the invention
• FIG 3 shows an illustration of a section of the personalized security document produced according to the invention with a character image according to a third embodiment of the invention.
• FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 Shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 are wave-shaped character images which have been produced according to the method according to the invention.
• FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 differ in that different waveforms for the character images 1 - 9 shown in three rows in this case, which contain characters, namely letters in particular, have.
• microtext characters having waveforms having different amplitudes and frequencies that is, different wave forms and wavelengths are configurable.
• a three-row character image 4 is shown in waveform, in which the font sizes of the characters used therein are steadily reduced with continuous wave until they are invisible or leaked in the background.
• FIG. 3 once again shows three-row character images 5 - 9, which likewise have different amplitudes and frequencies, whereby such differently equipped character images 5 - 9 can also be arranged together within a security document in order to increase the security against counterfeiting.
