Patent ID: 6874774

Claim:
A process for the fabrication, from a single block of paper made of a volume of stacked paper sheets, of a plurality of paper products each in the form of a sub-block with an image produced on a side of the sub-block, said method comprising the steps of: (a) printing a plurality of images on at least one major surface of the paper sheets in the block; (b) skewing the block of paper sheets in a direction to offset the printed images with respect to one another; and (c) trimming the skewed block of paper sheets in a plurality of planes perpendicular to the major surfaces of the paper sheets, at least one of said plane passing through at least one image such that the plane passes through a leading edge of the image at the top of the paper block, and through an opposed trailing edge of the image at the bottom of the paper block, thereby forming a plurality of paper products in the form of sub-blocks cut from the block.
