Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009103274A1] The invention relates to a method for the individual application of a hot embossing film, according to which an adhesive is printed on a substrate in the form of symbols, patterns, numbers etc., then a hot embossing film consisting of a backing film, peel-off layer and decorative layer is hot-laminated on the printed substrate and the backing film is removed. The invention is characterised in that the substrate is a personal document (1), on which personal data, in particular a passport photograph (2) (in reverse) is printed using a digital printing method, the printing medium being a toner (8) or a dye that develops adhesive characteristics at laminating temperatures. A diffractive hot embossing film (3) that is devoid of an adhesive coating is hot-laminated on the printed personal document (1) and the backing film (4) is removed. Finally, an adhesive film (9) with an adhesive power <10N/cm is rolled over the substrate surface to remove any residues (7) of non-bonded film.
