ABSTRACT
Labeling encompasses a wide range of technologies and is one of the broad and
varied parts of pharmaceutical packaging that is particularly difficult and chal-
lenging. It consists of two very separate elements that are both required to
produce a label. The first element is the actual construction of a label, the
materials used in its construction, the adhesives, the inks, and all the other
process requirements including printing processes needed to describe the phys-
ical construction and manufacture of a label. The second is the graphic elements
of the label, both text and pictures, that communicate with everyone using the
product.
