Angers, France, May 29, 2007 - For the fourth consecutive year, Evolis card printers personalized and printed the accreditation badges of professionals of the film industry and cinephiles gracing the 60th Cannes Film Festival.

Throughout the Cannes Film Festival, from May 16 to 27, the 30 Evolis printers deployed at the access points of the Palais du Festival personalized and printed more than 55,000 accreditation badges.

Thanks to the Evolis Pebble printer, cinema professionals from all over the world obtained, instantaneously, their personalized (text, logo, bar code) accreditation badges for access to all the facilities and events at the world's most prestigious film event. Evolis Quantum, the industrial strength printer, ideal for personalization of badges in huge numbers, delivered and printed independently 15,000 badges for groups of 300 to 800 people at a time.
