The inventive method allows franking markings to be produced in situ, consisting of subject matter, such as text and/or pictures, photographs or slogans which has been chosen by the customer. A post office, for example, makes available a device (20) which is suitable for carrying out the inventive method to said customer, in addition to the basic postal elements of a franking marking or postage stamp, such as franking elements and security markings, if appropriate. The customer interactively inserts his or her subject into the free area of the postage stamp, using a touchscreen (1). If necessary, during the creation of the postage stamp, the customer can take his or her own photograph, or that of another person, or of animals or objects using a built-in digital camera (2) and can integrate said photograph into the franking marking image. The postage stamp resulting from this process is printed using a printer (4) and subsequently issued.

Le procédé selon l'invention permet de fabriquer in situ des timbres présentant des motifs, tels que textes et/ou images, photos ou slogans choisis par les clients eux-mêmes. A cet effet, par exemple, un système postal prévoit pour le client, un dispositif (20) approprié pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention, ainsi que des moyens postaux de marques de valeurs ou timbres, tels qu'affranchissement et toutes sortes de marquages de sécurité. Le client introduit ensuite son motif de manière interactive au moyen d'un écran tactile (1) dans les zones affranchies des timbres. Le cas échéant, grâce à une caméra numérique encastrée (2), le client peut tirer sa propre photo ou celle d'une autre personne, d'animaux ou d'objets, et introduire celle-ci dans l'image de la marque d'affranchissement. Une imprimante (4) permet d'imprimer le timbre ainsi établi, puis de le distribuer.
