Abstract: The invention relates to a security document (30?), to a method for producing a security document (30?), and to a method for producing an individualized security document (30?). The security document (30?) has a carrier substrate (1) with a carrier layer (10) and a thermosensitive coating (11) which can be caused to change color by the action of heat, in particular by means of a thermal print head (911). The security document (30?) further has a film element (2), which is transparent at least in areas and which has at least one decorative layer (24, 25) with at least one optical security feature (51, 52), and an adhesive layer (3). The adhesive layer (3) is arranged between the film element (2) and the carrier substrate (1). The thermosensitive coating (11) is arranged between the adhesive layer (3) and the carrier layer (10). The film element (2) covers the thermosensitive coating (11) at least in areas when viewed perpendicularly to the plane spanned by the upper side of the carrier substrate.

Abstract: The invention concerns a laminating film which includes a plurality of layers, for at least partially coating a cold-shapeable metal substrate, and a process for the production of such a metal substrate. The laminating film has a transparent carrier film, at least one transparent lacquer layer containing a diffractive relief structure, a reflection layer and an adhesive layer, wherein the transparent carrier film is formed from PET, wherein the carrier film is of a film thickness in the region of 19 to 75 ?m, wherein the carrier film has a modulus of elasticity in the region of 3500 to 5000 N/mm2 at least in one direction and wherein the at least one transparent lacquer layer has a modulus of elasticity which differs from the modulus of elasticity of the carrier film by a maximum of 10%, in particular by less than 5%.
