Definitions

  • the security transfer further comprises an adhesive layer. It may be that the adhesive layer is the layer of the security transfer furthest from the transfer substrate.
  • the UV blocking layer is provided as a separate layer on the security document substrate. It may be that the UV blocking layer is provided as a separate layer on the first layer. It may be that the UV blocking layer is provided as a separate layer by affixing the UV blocking layer to the security document substrate using a transfer. Alternatively, it may be that the security document substrate is the UV blocking layer. Thus, it may be that the security document substrate is the first fluorescent layer and the UV blocking layer. It may be that the UV blocking layer is transparent to visible light.
  • the security document is a bank note. It may be that the security document is a passport. It may be that the security document is a paper document. Thus, it may be that the security document substrate is a paper.
  • the security transfer 50 forming the letters "S" 60a, "i” 60b and “k” 60c is stamped onto the security document substrate 20 using a hot die 140 (shown schematically in Fig. 4 ).
  • the die 140 includes a base 150 and elements 160 that form the mirror image of the letters "S" 60a, "i” 60b and "k” 60c.
  • the die 140 is applied by machine to the transfer substrate 90 of the security transfer 50, to selectively stamp portions of the ribbon of security transfer 50, shown in Fig. 3 , onto the security document substrate 20, thereby forming the affixed security transfer 50.
