Abstract:
A form intermediate having a first surface, a second surface which faces a retard surface, a leading longitudinal edge which interfaces wit at least one friction feeder first, at least one fold line substantially perpendicular to the leading longitudinal edge dividing the form intermediate into a plurality of panel sections, and an adhesive pattern, the form intermediate intended to be fed through a printer having said at least one friction feeder and said retard surface of a length, the adhesive pattern comprising:at least one first adhesive strip which extends adjacent the leading longitudinal edge on the first surface a distance longer than the length of the retard surface such that a portion of the at least one first adhesive strip will pass over substantially the complete length of the retard surface when the form intermediate is fed by the at least one friction feeder; and at least one second adhesive strip which extends adjacent the leading longitudinal edge on the second surface a distance from the leading longitudinal edge inwards of the at least one first adhesive strip on the fast surface such that a portion of the at least one second adhesive strip will pass directly over substantially the complete length of the retard surface without the leading longitudinal edge being cupped toward the retard surface when the form intermediate is fed by the at least one friction feeder, wherein said retard surface is positioned to contact the center of the leading longitudinal edge.
