4. LABEL PRINTING
The following pages contain important
specifications on the DVD printing and the
film material required.
Please transmit this information to your
graphics artist or designer.
4.1. Printing Processes
Sony DADC uses screen printing processes for
printing DVDs as well as offset printing processes.
The following types of print can be processed:
● line prints with up to 4 colours (3 colours for
DVD-10)
● half-tone prints
● duplex and triplex prints
● Four-colour prints
(picture disc: offset/screen printing)
For particular requirements with respect to printing
quality in four-colour print, we offer the High
Definition Picture Disc. This is to be recommended
particularly with applications including
photographs, faces, landscapes or designs which
are similar to photographs.
A specific offset process is used which facilitates a
resolution that is about double that of the screen
print.
4.2. Printing Areas
On the following pages the three possible printing
areas on a DVD label are illustrated (specifications
F, G and H).
Please mind that there may be colour deviations
between the print on the aluminium coated part
and the non-aluminium coated interior parts.
Therefore, we advise to preprint an entire white
base to minimise colour deviations with specifica-
tions F, G, H.
4.3. Label Film Dimensions
Please ensure that your label films comply with the
required specifications F to H (see page 10 to 13).
Any necessary label film corrections are charged
according to our price list.
