Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018184721A1] The invention relates to a security element for producing security documents, such as bank notes, checks or the like, which shows a motif in front of a background, wherein the security element (S) has a motif region (1), which has a first coating (7) and provides the motif, and a background region (2), which has a second coating (8), which is different to the first coating (7), and provides the background, wherein an outline region (3) is provided which delimits the motif region (1) from the background region (2), wherein the outline region (3) is formed by a relief structure (10), which has a geometry for light absorption such that a brightness and/or color contrast is created between the outline region (3) on the one hand and the motif region (1) and background region (2) on the other hand, and the relief structure (10) of the outline region (3) is covered at least in part by the first coating (7) and/or the second coating (8) and thus catches register fluctuations of the first and/or second coating (7, 8).
