ABSTRACT:
A web of cardstock divided by transverse score lines includes card segments having apertures oriented with respect to an optical center point of each card segment. The web is continuously fed from a supply of cardstock by engagement of a tractor feed device with tracks of holes extending along the longitudinal edges of the web. A selected one of the holes serves to locate the optical center point of each card segment as the web is fed to a film mounting station. Film negatives cut from a strip of developed film are sequentially positioned in registry with the optical centers in the apertures of the card segments as the web advances through the film mounting station. An adhesive releasably secures the negatives in overlying relation with the apertures on one side of the cards to expose through the apertures a selected composition of the negatives. The mounted negatives are fed on the connected card segments through a machine for printing proofs followed by matching each proof with a mounted negative to determine if the composition of the proof should be adjusted by repositioning the film negative with respect to the aperture. Other adjustments, such as cropping the negatives, are performed as desired followed by final printing of the customized film negatives.
