It can even protect hand written notes done on plain paper.Įffectiveness: the technology works on most commercial color copiers and a large number of commercial black and white copiers too. When the volume of documents to be protected is low, this is an ideal way to provide anti-copy protection.īenefits: a very cost effective way to provide an anti-copy feature as part of a layered security plan for documents containing color.Ĭommon Uses: great for checks, coupons, tickets, prescriptions and other higher value documents that the originator does not want to see copied. In most cases the copier will respond to copy requests by stating it is not allowed to copy legal tender or currency. V-Dot technology is usually only available when the document is created on traditional presses or commercial digital printers but with this unique stamp the critical elements of the technology cause copiers to fail to acceptably reproduce the document. The use of V-Dot technology provides a higher level of security by blocking the copying of the document on most commercial color copiers and scanners.
Certain documents need more than just copy-evident protection (the ability to distinguish whether a document is the original or a copy) as provided by Void Pantograph or Verification Grid technologies.
