Abstract
Specialized sheets, for example, in the construction of business forms, having patterns of pressure activated cohesive are constructed so that all the sheets can be identical yet when the sheets are in a stack blocking of the pressure activated cohesive, and subsequent feeding problems, are eliminated by making the cohesive patterns offset a dimension 'd' perpendicular to the direction of feed of the forms from a feed bin through an imaging device to an output tray. Either the feed bin, or an edge guide of the output tray, can be shifted at least the dimension 'd' to automatically align the pressure activated cohesive patterns on cooperating first and second sheets, and after proper alignment of the cohesive patterns the sheets may be fed through a conventional pressure sealer. An inserter may be provided for inserting a confidential information sheet between the cohesive pattern-containing sheets, and/or confidential information may be imaged on the inside faces of the sealed packet formed by the sheets using a non-impact printer or facsimile machine.
