Abstract

Methods and systems obtain, using a computer, a space layout having areas. The areas maintain display structures, and the display structures are adapted to maintain display items. Such methods and systems obtain, using the computer, item data related to the display items. The item data is formatted to be printed on item signs that are adapted to be attached to the display structures in locations corresponding to the display items. Each of the item signs is different from the other item signs and each of the item signs is specific to the corresponding display items. These methods and systems: determine, using the computer, for each of the areas, an area-specific number of item signs to be printed based on the display items in each of the areas; obtain, using the computer, bundle rules; and organize, using the computer, the item signs into sign bundles according to the bundle rules.
