Abstract
A pattern is provided in coated printed media by flood coating a printed media with an overcoat material that hardens to form an overcoat coating and by controllably removing a portion of the overcoat coating from the printed media in a predetermined region with laser ablation. The printed media in the ablated region remains substantially intact. The ablated predetermined region provides the pattern in the coated printed media.
