Abstract
A method for forming on a substrate () a pattern of a material, the method comprising: providing (S) a material layer (); providing (S, S) an adhesive layer (), wherein at least one of the material layer () or the adhesive layer () comprises a pattern corresponding to the pattern to be formed on the substrate (); and transferring (S) the material to the substrate () with the adhesive fixing the material to a surface () of the substrate (). This solves the problem of forming on a substrate a pattern of a material that, in general, cannot be applied to the substrate directly due to the fact that the material cannot be printed and/or has no or reduced adherence properties with respect to the substrate.
