Abstract
An image transfer method which can prevent poor registering and gives an esthetically fine multi-color prepress proof and a multi-color print with excellent registering, the method comprising imagewise exposing an image-forming material consisting essentially of a substrate, a photosensitive layer formed on the substrate and a protection film attached to the photosensitive layer, peeling off the protection film, and introducing the image-forming material into a nip formed so that the photosensitive layer of the image-forming material and an image receptor come into contact with each other to selectively transfer part of the photosensitive layer to the image receptor and obtain a transfer image, the method using the image forming material prepared by attaching the protection film to the photosensitive layer under a tension at right angles with the axial direction of the rolls.
