Abstract: A printing process is disclosed which easily and rapidly produces products containing images which are very striking and dramatic. The process uses ordinary paper or foil substrates and prints white and color layers using conventional printing equipment and operations, keeping production costs low, making the process and resulting products quite economical. The variety of visual appearances that can be created provide wide flexibility to create images with dramatic depth and highlighting. The invention uses reflective, white and color layers of varying densities and areas of application, applied to ordinary paper- or foil-based substrates, to achieve the highlighted and depth-appearing images. The printed products of the present invention, with their dramatic images incorporating highlights and the appearance of depth, can be used as printed materials for many purposes, including packaging, publications, illustrations, cards, and numerous other applications.
