Abstract From the Canadian patent

This invention relates to a method for forming a colored image on a degradable sheet material. As a result a negative- or, positive-working color proofing sheet can be produced on a variety of printing paper stocks. Upon exposure to an actinic radiation source through a screened image and development it can, accurately reproduce the image on the degradable sheet. The construction is useful as a color proof which can be employed to accurately predict the image quality from a lithographic printing process on a variety of printing surfaces.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 10, 1989. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended October 10, 2009.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 10, 2011.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
