Abstract
A method of printing a repeating pattern on a web of an extensible material by providing a web of an extensible material, determining an adjusted print repeat length profile for a repeating pattern to be printed on the web of material; and printing a repeating pattern on a surface of the extensible material, the repeating pattern comprising printed indicia which is repeated along the length of the web, such that the print repeat length of the printed indicia varies along the length of the web in accordance with the adjusted print repeat length profile.
