Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for a three-dimensional effect on the edge of a multi-page document (e.g., a book). In one embodiment, a first set of image slices associated with a left-eye image is printed on a first side of long pages of a multi-page document. The first set of image slices printed adjacent to edges of the long pages. A second set of image slices associated with a right-eye image is printed on a second side of the long pages of the multi-page document. The second set of image slices printed adjacent to the edges of the long pages. Thereafter, the multi-page document is created by interleaving the long pages with short pages to enable visibility of the first set of image slices and the second set of image slices printed adjacent to the edges of the long pages.
