4.5.1

Catalogue number

A catalogue number has to be printed on the DVD.
4.5.2

DVD logo

Generally speaking it is recommended to put the DVD
logo onto the DVD. However, if the DVD logo is placed
on the DVD, the disc must comply to the DVD-Speci-
fications. In accordance to the specifications, the DVD
logo should be seen clearly on the disc. Therefore, it has
to be shown in the highest possible contrast, i.e. the
contrast between the logo and the background colour
must not be less than 50%.
4.5.3

"Made in EU"

A designation of origin is not necessary on the DVD.
However, if such designation is requested, it has to be
"Made in EU".
4.5.4.

Side Indication

For DVD 10 Sony DADC recommends to indicate the
Front and the Back Side of the DVD with "Side A" and
"Side B". This simplifies the handling of the DVD for end
consumers.
The generic DVD logo
in accordance with the DVD
specification
Deviations from the standardised DVD logo are not permitted. The DVD logo must not be distorted, squeezed, decom-
posed, framed or composed of parts with different colours.

Colours

Sony DADC uses the Pantone Matching System (PMS).
Please mark each label film with the Pantone colour
number requested by you. Please select your colour
from the Pantone Colour Selector 1000, except for
double impression (2x) colours.
When using Pantone colours 801 to 814, preprinting
should be carried out with white colour in order to
achieve the luminescent effect similar to the Pantone
Colour Selector 1000.

When producing your films, please note that a base of
polycarbonate with a reflective aluminium coating is
printed and therefore colour deviations may occur.
To provide (as much as possible) a compliance of the
printwork colours (e.g. of booklets) with the DVD label
printing, we advise to preprint a full white base on the
DVD.
