19. The nonlinear correction to the purely linear Jablczynski's dependence was due in part to the finite amount of the inner electrolyte inside the circle and in part due to the curvature of the source. These effects will be discussed in detail in an upcoming communication

21. 3). The higher the concentration of this electrolyte, the larger the difference in osmotic pressures between the stamp and the gelatin film, and the larger the transient precipitation zone over which the hydrodynamic effects settle down (cf. Ref. 14)
22. Fresnel lenses have many focal distances ssee Ref. 1d, but only the farthest focal distance has the greatest intensity. This focal distance was chosen for all of our calculations

25. As the PDMS is transparent, it was difficult to provide an exact measurement of the experimental focal point
