Definitions

  • This invention relates to security printing.
  • a security print proof against photocopying in which a primary image is rendered in a density modulation of pairs of lines, and a secondary image is applied to said primary image by altering the relationship between lines in a pair.
  • the relationship that is altered is spacing between lines in a pair.
  • the relationship that is altered maybe frequency of crossing of the lines in a pair.
  • the lines may be straight or wavy. Lines of each pair may cross at the edges of secondary image features, and may cross repeatedly within secondary image features, remaining parallel outside, or vice versa.
  • the line spacing of the primary image may be such as to render it capable of being copied by a photocopier, but the line spacing in the secondary image such as to be capable of resolution by a photocopier. Such a print will, of course, reveal its hidden image in a photocopy.
  • the lines may be dotted.
  • the print may be a monochrome print or a colour print, in which lines are made up of colour segments. When the lines are dotted, the dots may be made up of RBG or CMYX components.
  • the invention comprises a security print as above described in combination with a detector in the form of a lenticular screen of which the lenslets correspond to the line spacing of the primary image. Placing the screen over the print in register with the lines of the print will reveal the hidden image because there the lenslets will be out of register with the lines.
  • Figure 2 is a detail of a second security print
  • the print illustrated in Figure 1 has a primary image rendered as a density modulation of pairs of parallel wavy lines 11 , 12.
  • a secondary image is applied to the primary image - in this case, the letter "C” of the word “copy”, for example - by, within the confines of the "C", the spacing between the lines 11 , 12 reducing from “a” to "b".
  • the line spacing "a” is sufficiently small, the eye perceives the print as a continuous image, and can detect no difference within the "C”. It may be arranged, however, that the line spacing "A” is such as to be capable of being copied by a photocopier or scanner, while the spacing "b” is beyond the resolution of such an instrument.
  • the image may have spacings "a" and "b" which can be copied on a photocopier or scanner, the hidden image being revealed by placing over it, in register with the wavy lines, a lenticular detector screen having cylindrical lenslets which correspond precisely to those lines. If a copy is made otherwise than by a photocopier or scanner, the aberration in the lines in the hidden image will not be reproduced, but using the detector screen will reveal that there is not hidden image where there should be one.
  • Figure 2 illustrates how parallel lines can convert to repeatedly crossing lines at the edges of hidden image features.
  • the hidden image is the word COPY (of which, in the detail, only the letters C and O are shown).
  • the line pairs are parallel within the letters, chs-crossing outside.
  • the print may have two hidden images, one capable of being copied by a photocopier and one not.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une impression de sécurité à l'épreuve de la photocopie, dans laquelle une image primaire est rendue par une modulation de densité de paires de lignes, et une image secondaire est appliquée sur l'image primaire par modification de la relation entre les lignes constituant une paire.
