Protective element Anti-scan / anti-copy raster

Protective element Microprint

Lines, patterns, or texts consisting of very small letters or numbers which are almost indistinguishable by human eye.

Protective element Guilloche

Guilloche

An intricate design of interwoven and continual lines arranged into geometric patterns.
