Disc Serialisation
5. DISC SERIALISATION
Sony DADC Austria offers the possibility to apply an
individual code number for every disc of the DVD-
ROM production, e.g. for identification purposes.
Your preselected code number is printed on the disc
with the ink-jet process.
The code number is printed approximately 5 mm
from the centre hole of a disc in arc form.
The number will be printed on the read-out side
and can only be seen from the read-out side.
(see drawing below)
Please note that this service may result in slightly
longer turn around time of your DVD-ROM order.
The most important data of an ink-jet printer
are indicated for disc numbering:
Print image: 6 x 9 dot matrix, 3 mm high,
5 characters per 10 mm.
The series or code number may consist of
a maximum of 28 characters using
numbers, letters and symbols. Of the
maximum 28 characters 9 characters can
be changed automatically (e.g. increasing
order of numbers).
Admissible characters of the series or
code number are: letters ”a-z”, ”A-Z”,
numbers ”0-9” and symbols (selected
characters of the ISO 8859-1 set of
characters) in case you want to use
symbols please get in touch with our
Customer Service.
It is not possible to underline characters
(e.g. 123456).
A series or code number that changes can
only be printed once on the same disc.
Due to limitation of space on the disc
surface the series or code number can be
applied in one line only.
The selected numbers of a series or code
number can be increased or reduced by
any constant value. Other characters such
as letters or symbols remain unchanged.
A maximum of 9 characters can be
increased or reduced.
Example:
BCDE123456789
ABC-123456789gh0m
123456789abcdef
00000-123456789-0000000
The numbers 123456789 are the
characters that can be changed.
It is not possible to write in ”bold” or
”italics”.
Special requests (e.g. printing random
numbers which can be supplied on a DOS
compatible 3.5” floppy disk) should be
addressed directly to our Customer Service
department.
