3D Tactile Feature
Offered exclusively on the Digimarc ExianEvident 3D card, this unique tactile personalization method creates a raised, transparent surface resulting in a variable, cross authentication feature. Inspectors can see and feel it to quickly validate the authenticity of the document.

Laser Perforation
Analogous to a paper watermark on the highest quality paper, it is not noticeable until held up to light. It can be a fixed emblem, number or letters positioned anywhere on the document.

Tri-Color OVD
Consists of three optically variable links that appear and disappear with variation in the angle of viewing.

UV Ghost Portrait and Variable Text
By using a special ultraviolet fluorescent ink, a fully detailed ghost and/or variable text can be printed anywhere on the card.

Banknote Design
These security designs use fineline pre-printing and colors that are difficult to reproduce. The use of spot color printing, as opposed to 4 color process printing, allows the observer to notice color and dot pattern differences.
