          Application No. 09/742,653                                                  
                              APPENDIX                                                
          31.   An adhesive article comprising:                                       
               a release liner having a top release surface and a bottom              
          surface;                                                                    
               a continuous layer of adhesive having a bottom surface and a           
          top surface and end edges, wherein the bottom surface of the                
          adhesive is adhered to the top release surface of the release               
          liner; and                                                                  
               a pattern of non-adhesive material forms embedded into the             
          top release surface of the release liner, said non-adhesive                 
          material forms comprising a polymeric ink and having a top                  
          surface, wherein the top surface of the non-adhesive material               
          forms is even with or below the plane of the top release surface            
          of the release liner.                                                       
          59.  An adhesive article comprising:                                        
               a release liner having a release surface and a bottom                  
          surface;                                                                    
               a continuous layer of adhesive having a bottom surface and a           
          top surface and end edges, wherein the bottom surface of the                
          adhesive is adhered to the release surface of the release liner;            
               a pattern of non-adhesive material forms embedded into the             
          release surface of the release liner, wherein the non-adhesive              
          material forms comprise a polymeric ink and wherein the top                 
          surface of the non-adhesive material forms is even with or below            
          the plane of the release surface of the release liner; and                  
               a facestock adhered to the top surface of the adhesive                 
          layer, wherein the thickness of the non-adhesive material forms             
          is sufficient to result in deformation of the facestock upon                
          application of the adhesive article to a substrate.                         
          60.  An adhesive article comprising:                                        
               a release liner having a release surface and a back surface;           
               a continuous layer of adhesive having a front surface and a            
          back surface and end edges, wherein the front surface of the                
          adhesive is adhered to the release surface of the release liner;            
                                         -14-
