1. An image processing method comprising:
obtaining a digital file representing a three-dimensional (“3D”) package, the 3D package including plural panels that adjoin each other, the 3D package comprising an encoded signal printed on at least two (2) of the plural panels;
defining plural pairs of adjoining panels;
determining an encoded signal detectability score for each of the pairs of adjoining panels, the determined encoded signal detectability score being dependent on characteristics of the encoded signal; and
combining the determined encoded signal detectability scores to yield a net score for the 3D package.
