Polish term or phrase: druki akcydensowe; akcydensy
The sentence I have to transalte: Wielkości znaków używane w akcydensach.
So there is no context needed. It's just a term I'm looking for.
Found something like "printing" and "job" but it doesn't convince me. I'll be gratefull for any ideas.

(printed) ephemera


Explanation:
Wikipedia:
ENG:
phemera (singular: ephemeron) are any transitory written or printed matter not meant to be retained or preserved. The word derives from the Greek ephemeros, meaning "lasting only one day, short-lived".[1] Some collectible ephemera are advertising trade cards, airsickness bags, bookmarks, catalogues, greeting cards, letters, pamphlets, postcards, posters, prospectuses, defunct stock certificates or tickets, and zines.

PL: Akcydens, druk akcydensowy (z łac. accidens, tzn. coś przypadkowego) – wyrób poligraficzny niebędący ani książką, ani czasopismem, ani też zadrukowanym opakowaniem. Zasadniczo jest to wyrób jednoarkuszowy, który może być w postaci jednej kartki, lub nierozciętej składki.

Akcydensy to samoistne druki o charakterze użytkowym lub okolicznościowym. Zaliczyć do nich można praktycznie wszystkie pozostałe druki, począwszy od znaczka pocztowego czy wizytówki, aż po plakat.

Example sentence(s):
  • Ephemera are generally things that are printed for a specific occasion or purpose and aren’t meant to last after their original use. Examples are: theatre programs, posters for events, ticket stubs, political leaflets, and bumper stickers.
