Field notes
The project treats pre-RIP work as a measurable production layer rather than a vague prepress step. Its example packs 24 order lines and 132 transfers into 21 sheets at 77% mean coverage, with zero overlaps, while a QR code and two readable lines are intended to remain with each cut piece. White-mask generation for a second spot-channel layer is explicitly identified as planned rather than available.
