ESVAPES - 3G 200-COUNT MASTER CARTON - PRINT RELEASE v1 - OPTION B - 20261015
==========================================================================================

WHAT THIS IS
OPTION B 'THE SEAM' (recommended). White box. The fat ES on every wall; the ES mark's cyan seam runs round all
four walls at one height (4.35 in below the top crease) through the centre bar of every ES; the product block
(3G / 200 COUNT) is strung on the same line. The top: one giant ES (10.25 in tall) split on the flap seam -
it completes when the two long flaps close.

PRODUCTION NOTES
  Board: white. Print the OUTSIDE only; the inside is unprinted.
SOLID INKS ONLY (no screens, no tints):
  BLACK    100K           - the ES marks, all type, the arrows. Black OVERPRINTS (the cyan seam runs
                            under the black letters, so press misregistration never opens a white gap).
  CYAN     100C           - the seam line (1.5 mm) round all four walls + the edge-light bars top-left.
  MAGENTA  100M           - the edge-light bars bottom-right.
  Run as process (C, M, K plates) or as three spot inks: Black / PANTONE Process Cyan C /
  PANTONE Process Magenta C. Every element is ONE solid ink.

TOP AND TAPE
  The two long (major) top flaps carry the giant ES: the front flap (on P1) the lower half upright, the
  back flap (on P3) the upper half printed upside down - correct when folded. Reads upright from the front.
  The short (minor) top flaps and every bottom flap are unprinted.
  ES sealing tape (UPrinting water-activated, 2.75 in): along the top seam, ~2.75 in down each end. Both end
  walls keep the middle 2.75 in x 2.75 in at the top clear for it. On the closed top the black tape lies
  on the giant ES's centre bars and carries the seam line.
