Abstract: Printed matter that includes a light-transmissive substrate, a laminated clear layer, and a light adjustment layer. The laminated clear layer is disposed above a main surface of the substrate, and is composed of clear element layers that are light-transmissive. The light adjustment layer has a function of adjusting an amount of light transmitted therethrough and is disposed on the laminated clear layer and/or interposed between a plurality of the clear element layers. The adjustment layer includes light reflective particles and covers a portion of a surface of a layer thereunder. Each of the light reflective particles is granular and has a light reflective surface. The light adjustment layer, in terms of surface area ratio in plan view, covers from 2% to 50% of the surface of the layer thereunder.
