Identifying indicia 16, such as numbers, in human and/or machine readable form, generated from an internal or external source is printed on the forward end of a continuous splicing tape (not shown) ready to form a splicing tab 14. The trailing end of a film 10 to be identified and the leading end of a next successive film 12 are brought into register. The tab 14 is severed from the splicing tape, and is used to splice together the adjacent ends of the adjacent films 10, 12 whilst corresponding identifying indicia 16 is imprinted on an associated container, e.g. envelope 30. After processing of the films, they are separated by severing the tab 14 when the indicia 14 is left only on the film 10 which can then correctly be allocated to its respective container. <IMAGE> |
