An image reproduction process in which an element having a removable support and a photohardenable layer is (1) laminated to a suitable receptor, (2) imagewise exposed through the support to actinic radiation which selectively raises the stick temperature of those areas receiving the radiation, (3) the support stripped from the layer, and (4) the outer surface of the layer treated (e.g., dusted) with material which adheres only to the underexposed areas of the layer to read-out the image. By repeating the laminating, exposing with separate color separation records, stripping and treating steps in sequence, a multicolor image can be obtained. The receptor may be plastic, metal, ceramic, glass, etc. The process is useful for color proofing. |
