Abstract
A method for aligning a lenticular sheet, in accordance with the present invention, includes applying curable adhesive to a surface and placing a lenticular sheet over the curable adhesive on the surface. The adhesive is cured at a first end portion of the lenticular sheet such that the first end portion is aligned with a first reference position. A temperature of the lenticular sheet is adjusted to align a second end portion of the lenticular sheet with a second reference position. Remaining portions of adhesive are cured to secure the lenticular sheet.
