Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On October 27, 2005, Paxar Corporation (the "Company") announced its financial
results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2005.



Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

On October 18, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a realignment
plan, which it first announced to its employees on October 27, 2005. The primary
goal of the Company's realignment plan is to better service its customers,
reduce costs, increase its market share and optimize the utilization and
capacity of its operations. As a part of its plan, the Company will be
realigning its North American and European manufacturing operations. The Company
expects to largely complete its realignment plan by December 31, 2007.

The Company estimates that the total cash costs and expenses associated with its
realignment plan will be approximately $25 to $30 million. The Company
anticipates that non-cash charges, comprising severance, facility consolidation
costs and related asset write-offs in its domestic operations, will range from
$10 to $14 million.

At this time, the Company is unable in good faith to make a determination of the
specific estimates or ranges of estimates required by paragraphs (b) and (d) of
this Item 2.05 with respect to its realignment plan. As permitted by Item 2.05
of Form 8-K, the Company will file an amendment to this Report within four
business days after the Company's determination of such estimates or ranges of
estimates.

A copy of the press release in connection with the above disclosures is
furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
