Abstract
A method of forming color proof images of inks on a printing stock prior to a production or press run, comprising the steps of providing a receiver having a peelable substrate, such receiver including a layer having a mordant in a binder formed over the substrate which will form a bond with colorant in the ink and an ink-receiving layer formed over the mordant layer which is permeable to ink, but which restricts spreading of ink as it passes through such layer to the mordant layer; depositing ink having colorants onto the ink-receiving layer to form a color proof image in the mordant layer; and laminating the receiver to a printing stock and removing the peelable substrate from the receiver to form the color proof.
