Abstract
In a simple and low cost method for making a sign, such as a vehicle registration sign, indicia are formed by toner material applied by an electronically controllable printer to a portion of a film web or to one of a row of separate film portions, the surface of which web portion is preferably one reflecting light from vehicle headlamps. The printer is an ionographic one wherein the toner material is fixed on the surface of the web portion with pressure and in a cold state. The printed web portion is then combined with other parts including a transparent front plate adhesively bonded to the web portion and an injection moulded plastic frame to protect the web portion from mechanical damage and to seal it against injury from dirt and moisture.
