摘要:
A process for producing a colored image by laminating a light-sensitive material comprising a temporary support film (i), a colored light-sensitive layer and a heat-activable adhesive layer onto an image-receiving material at elevated temperature and under pressure, subjecting the light-sensitive layer to imagewise exposure and developing by peeling off the support film, characterized in that the image-receiving material comprises a light-sensitive compound which, on irradiation, releases a gas which remains trapped in the image-receiving material in the form of gas bubbles. The advantage of the process is that, on irradiation under a halftone original, the size of the halftone dots in the coloured image produced on such an image-receiving material is optically reduced.
摘要:
The invention relates to a process for the production of a colored image for color proofing of copy masters for multicolor printing and a layer material for carrying out this process.A positive image of the exposure mask (color separation film) is produced by lamination of a photosensitive material onto a colored layer material, followed by imagewise exposure and peeling-off of a film support, or a negative image of the exposure mask is obtained by imagewise exposure of the photosensitive material before the lamination, accompanied by flood exposure after lamination followed by peeling-off of a film support. The two procedures use the same materials and do not require wet development. For each single-color image, only one lamination step is required.
