PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a thermal transfer film which is excellent in the durability of an obtained thermal transfer print, including the abrasion resistance, light-resistance and forgery preventing properties, and which causes little damage on a transfer object and brings about neither deterioration of the quality of the print, nor a rise of the manufacturing cost. SOLUTION: In the thermal transfer film, a thermal transfer layer having a projecting part partially is formed on one side of a base, at the most distant position from the base, and by using this film, the thermal transfer layer is transferred onto the transfer object. On the occasion, it is possible to form an image beforehand on the object of transfer of the thermal transfer layer by a thermal transfer recording method or the like and to transfer the thermal transfer layer onto the image. In another way, it is possible to form a thermal transfer image by transferring a thermal transfer ink layer onto the thermal transfer layer of the thermal transfer film and to transfer the image together with the thermal transfer layer whereon it is formed. In either way, the image is protected by the thermal transfer layer and the projecting part of the thermal transfer layer transferred onto the transfer object can be distinguished by the reflection of light according to the angle of a glance to an image recording surface. A protective layer and the projecting part can be formed on the transfer object by one transfer. |
