Abstract
A transfer film ( ) having a print pattern is floated on a liquid surface ( A) within a transfer bath and a transfer objective body ( ) is immersed into a liquid ( ) within the transfer bath together with the transfer film ( ) whereby the print pattern on the transfer film ( ) is transferred onto the surface of the transfer objective body ( ) using a liquid pressure. The surface portion of the transfer objective body ( ) on which the print pattern should be transferred is immersed under the liquid surface ( A) while the surface portion of the transfer objective body follows the transfer film ( ) so as to be developed thereon in a plane manner by rolling the surface portion of the transfer objective body ( ) on the transfer film ( ). The transfer surface ( ) of the transfer objective body ( ) and the print pattern on the transfer film ( ) are closely attached to each other as if they are adhered in a manner faced to each other with the same area and as a result, the print pattern is closely adhered all over the surface of the transfer objective body ( ).
