A nonwoven is provided having a pattern displaying at least two groups of areas having different optical properties distinguishable to reading and decoding equipment. The pattern may be arise from differences in the microstructure of the web. The nonwoven material may have an embossed pattern having a basic, static component and a dynamic component which varies within a given length of the nonwoven web. Further, a method is provided for obtaining information from a nonwoven web, comprising observing the web surface using an optical reading device, collecting data based on differences in optical properties in the web surface, storing in a digital memory a pattern based on the collected data and comparing the stored pattern to a collection of previously stored patterns.

There is disclosed a method for management of printing jobs. In the method user identification is requested to identify the user, who then selects an artwork for the labels. Data regarding the selected artwork is retrieved from a data storage. Printing properties are defined for the selected artwork, and a set of available unique codes for the labels is determined on the basis of the user identification. A printing file is constructed including information related to at least the selected artwork and printing material selected for the printing job. The printing file is stored into a cloud storage linked with the identified user. A unique code is assigned for each label from the set of available unique codes. The unique code is assigned either in the printing file or when printing the labels.

System and method for management of printing jobs

A method of using a central computer that is communicatively connectable to a first control computer and configured to dynamically allocate and transmit unique codes from a server to a first printing machine, having a first rate of printing. The method includes the steps of: receiving a first request for a first patch of unique codes from the first control computer of a first printing machine, wherein the first control computer is communicatively connected to the first printing machine and wherein the first control computer controls the first printing machine for printing the unique codes in package labels; obtaining printing parameters comprising a file size of a unique code and a printing speed of the first printing machine; determining a first time interval between the first request to the server and the unique code being available to be used by the first printing machine; determining a first communication speed between the server and the first printing machine; dynamically calculating a first optimum patch size of the first patch of unique codes to be delivered to the first printing machine based on the first request from the first control computer of the first printing machine, the printing parameters, the first time interval and the first communication speed; and communicating a first patch of unique codes having a patch size equal to the first optimum patch size to the first control computer of the first printing machine.
