    I understand for resizes that are eligible for FYI's the scaling must be directly proportional and cannot result in a change to the layout/flow/content or functionality.

    Can you comment on if the following would be approvable as I believe it adheres to the above requirements. A small postcard, 5"x 5" is scaled up to 10"x 10". The scaled up pages are then arranged vertically (10" x 20"), matching the order of the PDF submitted to PAAB. This is printed on a poster board. No content is moved around on the pages themselves.

    Can you also comment on if adding a QR code next to the scaled up postcard, that links to a PDF of the postcard, could be approved as an FYI or would require that a submission?

      Apologies for the delay @SMurcar. We were in the process of upgrading the forum over the last two days.

      As the piece would be moving from two sided to one sided this would change the flow. The content in the top section may set context for the bottom section depending on the formatting and flow. We would suggest submitting for a minor update (if the resizing is intended to replace the small postcard altogether) so that we can assess the revised visual flow to ensure all aspects of the Code remain met.

      The addition of the QR code as described above could be considered as a minor update. Please see the Submission Guidelines for more information
