Arziro Design introduced by AGFA Graphics enables the creation of unique, complex, and hard-to-copy designs that discourage forgers from attacking a brand. It runs as a plug-in for Adobe Illustrator on Mac and PC, allowing optimal creativity in a known working environment. The 2.0-version now offers extra features e.g. live variable line widths and additional guilloches, and new functions such as Smart Selection, which helps designers to select subsets of complex elements automatically. The optional Arziro Anti-Copy module produces custom-made, copy-proof patterns that expose counterfeits and thus adds more security to the design of documents.
‘Arziro Anti-Copy lets PSPs add a small, security design element to the layout of your counterfeit-sensitive documents,’ Grant explained. ‘If anyone attempts to forge these papers, that security element gives them away through an image or word that appears after copying.’ As a unique anti-forgery solution that also integrates with Arziro Design (Plus), Arziro Authenticate produces secure, copy-proof QR+ codes that can be printed directly on a counterfeit-sensitive printed item.
