Abstract
A pattern transferring film having a print pattern provided on an upper surface thereof is floated on a liquid surface within a transferring bath and an objective body to which a pattern is to be transferred is immersed into a liquid within the transferring bath together with the pattern transferring film under a liquid pressure so as to transfer the print pattern onto the objective body. A liquid pressure pattern-transferring printing ink comprises a resin ingredient having an alkyd resin as a fundamental component, a plasticizer and a pigment. The resin ingredient is composed of a short-oil alkyd resin of 2 to 15 weight % having a cellulose acetate butyrate of 3 to 20 weight % added thereto. The plasticizer for the printing ink is used which has a content of 2 to 4 weight % when the ink is of black and having a content of 0.01 to 2 weight % when the ink is of color other than black. The pattern transferring film is fed onto the liquid surface within the transferring bath so as to transfer the print pattern onto the objective body after the print pattern is treated by an activator to be swelled when being made dry, but as it is when it is in a state of being swelled immediately after printed.
