Abstract: A process for forming a colloid relief image on a substrate, comprising the steps of: (a) exposing to actinic light a sheet structure comprising a substrate having coated on one surface thereof a first layer comprising a colloid material capable of being tanned when contacted by oxidized silver halide developer, and coated over the first layer a second layer comprising a photographic silver halide emulsion, the emulsion containing substituted gelatin which is substantially resistant to tanning by the oxidized silver halide developers; (b) developing exposed sheet structure with oxidizable silver halide developers; and (c) washing the sheet structure with warm water, whereby all of the second layer is removed together with portions of the first layer which have not been tanned.

Abstract: An article comprising a substrate having coated on one surface thereof a first layer comprising a colloidal material capable of being tanned when contacted with oxidized silver halide developers, and overyling said first layer a second layer comprising a photographic silver halide emulsion, said emulsion containing substituted gelatin therein, said substituted gelatin being substantially resistant to tanning when contacted by said oxidized silver halide developers.

Abstract: A presensitized photographic speed light sensitive sheet structure suitable for producing a dry transfer element, comprising a substrate having a release coating thereon, and overlying the release coating a photo-sensitive layer comprising a silver halide emulsion. After light exposure to an original and development, the remaining silver image portions have a greater adhesion for a receptor surface when applied thereto under pressure than the adhesion of the indicia to the substrate under like pressure.
