In security printing, void pantograph refers to a method of making copy-evident and tamper-resistant patterns in the background of a document. Normally these are invisible to the eye, but become obvious when the document is photocopied.
Drafting pantograph in use Pantograph used for scaling a picture. The red shape is traced and enlarged. Pantograph 3d rendering. A pantograph (from Greek παντ- 'all, every' and γραφ- 'to write', from their original use for copying writing) is a mechanical linkage connected in a manner based on parallelograms so that the movement of one pen, in tracing an image, produces identical ...
In security printing, various methods such as void pantograph are used to create patterns that are hard to copy exactly and when copied inexactly produces an easily detectable image. This can include halftone screens that are affected by the copying process, fine line patterns in different directions that are differently affected by copying and ...
A pantograph connected to a pencil produced within a few minutes a "grand trait", a contour line on a piece of paper. With the help of a second scaling-down pantograph, the basic features of the portrait were transferred from the sheet in the form of dotted lines to a copper plate, which had previously been prepared with a ground for etching.

This allows layout editors to write notes to the printer on the print flat (the image that is to be photographed and sent to print) which will not show in the ...

A pantograph (or "pan" or "panto") is an apparatus mounted on the roof of an electric train, tram or trolley buses [1] to collect power through contact with an ...
A pantograph is a mechanical connected linkage of a writing instrument, like a pen, such that the movement of one pen, in tracing an image, produces identical movements in a second pen. Pantograph may also refer to: Pantograph (lighting suspension), an overhead lighting system used in television and photography
This technique produces blue lines on a white background. The drawings are also called blue-lines or bluelines. [12] [13] Other comparable dye-based prints were known as blacklines. Diazo prints remained in use until they were replaced by xerographic print processes. Xerography is standard copy machine technology using toner on copy paper.
