PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent conspicuousness of a latent image pattern in front view by forming a latent image equivalent to an intaglio latent image with toner using an electrophotographic image forming apparatus. SOLUTION: In the method, with respect to a plurality of latent image lines L2 constituting a latent image pattern, a color material is attached in a large amount so that the color material is attached as thickly as in intaglio latent image printing. A first straight line L1 along the main scanning direction and a second straight line L3 along the sub scanning direction are perpendicular to each other, and a camouflage pattern with dots D printed randomly on intersections of the first straight line L1 and the latent image line L2 with the second straight line L3 is synthesized over the whole latent image pattern. As a result, when these images are printed on paper, the latent image pattern becomes inconspicuous in front view. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
