Abstract
Improved techniques for using holograms to provide security for documents and the like. A method of providing a tamper-resistant pattern in association with a hologram on a substrate, the method including: preparing a hologram, the hologram being recorded in a photosensitive recording layer carried by a carrier; printing a pattern onto the photosensitive recording layer; and then attaching the hologram to a substrate by adhesive such that the pattern is between the photosensitive recording layer and the substrate to provide a tamper-resistant pattern in association with the hologram.
