Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A process of converting and printing on paper webs includes converting the running web by coating and/or calendering the web. Printing of the web occurs directly after the converting step. Thus, the converted web is not wound into a roll between the converting step and the printing step. A facility for converting the web of paper is placed in front of the entrance to a printing machine. The pass-through speed of the converting facility matches that of the printing machine.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 17, 1996 and granted December 5, 2000. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 17, 2016.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 17, 2018.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
