Abstract From the Canadian patent

A light-sensitive color-proofing sheet is described for producing an image on various substrates. A light-sensitive continuous color layer is releasably attached to a carrier. Overlaying the color layer is a water-insoluble transparent colorless barrier layer. On the opposite surface of the barrier layer is a thermally laminable adhesive layer. Upon lamination of the sheet to a substrate, removal of the carrier and exposure to actinic radiation, the color layer is formed into an image photo-, mechanically, by removal of the non-image areas.
