IMPROVEMENTS RELATING TO SIGNATURE PANELS

摘要

A transfer foil for providing a signature panel on a substrate. The foil comprises a carrier layer (20) supporting a transferable, signature panel layer (22) comprising a coating composition incorporating a polymeric material, wherein the signature panel layer can be transferred in response to heat and pressure onto a substrate from the carrier layer (20) and on a signature accepting surface of which a signature can be provided. The foil carries at least one non-fluid based ink placed on or in signature accepting surface of the panel layer (22) by direct letter press, offset letter press, or offset lithographic printing, the printed ink transferring with the transferable layer in use.
