Abstract

A method of marking a holographic matrix. The method includes forming the holographic matrix, which is designed to produce holograms by printing. At least one anti-copy mark on the holographic matrix is formed and at least one copy-robust mark on the holographic matrix is formed. At least one of the steps for forming at least one mark on the holographic matrix uses laser-structuring of the holographic matrix surface. Preferably, the anti-copy mark represents a message and a plurality of redundancies of the message carried by the anti-copy mark. Also, preferably, a picosecond laser is used to form the anti-copy mark is formed.
