A method of forming a package includes depositing polyvinylidene chloride on a substrate, wherein the substrate comprises paper, drying the polyvinylidene chloride on the substrate to form a packaging material including less than 5 wt % water, applying water to the packaging material so that the packaging material includes at least about 8 wt % water, and bringing a first portion of the polyvinylidene chloride of the packaging material into contact with a second portion of the polyvinylidene chloride of the packaging material in the presence of heat to form a seal. The at least about 8 wt % water is operative for increasing a hot tack of the seal relative to the packaging material including less than 5 wt % water.

A process and associated element for forming an image on an substrate using an electrographic element comprising a releasable dielectric image receptive layer supported on an electrically conductive carrier sheet by applying an adhesive coating on the substrate front surface, producing a toned image on the image receptive dielectric layer, contacting the image to the adhesive layer thereby adhering the electrographic element to the substrate, and separating and removing the carrier sheet from the image receptive layer, whereby the image receptive layer and the toned image remain on the substrate.
