Printing system for generating personalized memorial items, and method for generating such items

摘要

A funeral home director or other party who wishes to generate a personalized memorial item (for example, a casket display) is provided with stock display sheets, which are most preferably formed of adhesive label sheets having easily peelable/removable precut display sheet print fields. The director is provided with software allowing text and images to be designed, edited, and printed onto the display sheet print fields in a form representing how the director would like such text and images displayed on the memorial item if it was personalized. The printed display sheet print fields may then each be affixed to a corresponding memorial item print field on the memorial item. If the background color of the display sheet print field is coordinated with the background color (or average color) of the stock imagery surrounding the memorial item print field, the display sheet print field will visually “meld into” the memorial item when affixed thereon, thereby making it appear as if the image(s) and text on the display sheet print fields were printed directly on the memorial item print fields.
