Abstract (en)

A laminate for use in computerized automated sign making machines and the method for making the same are disclosed. The laminate is formed by adhesively laminating a clear polyester sheet (12) to any suitable decorative backing sheet (10). The polyester sheet (12) has a release coating on a surface thereof which adhesively receives a decorative face sheet. When introduced to an automated sign making machine (56) a movable knife cuts only through the face sheet (52) allowing selected portions of the face sheet to be removed to provide a sign of two decorative features, one defined by the face sheet, and the other by the backing sheet. <IMAGE>
