Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Method and apparatus for creating certificate cards and cards created thereby code The present invention provides a method and apparatus for creating identification cards, and also Concerning certificate cards created by the law or by the WIK. The present invention applies to passports, certificates, driver's licenses, and details about the specific person (cardholder); in any form, such as used for other documents that may be forged. It also concerns certificate cards. Various forms of this already used The identification card contains an image that is representative of the cardholder. Such images are It may be in the form of a photograph of the bearer, or perhaps the bearer's signature. this Such identification cards are also commonly used to identify the holder and the card's class and/or or use, purely in the form of letters and numbers, typed or contains printed information. For the production of such certificate cards, The method proposed and used in We use photographic techniques to create this. Therefore, the gel usually contains a photosensitizer. A four-soldier print on a photocoat coated with and it is attached to 1IT1 of the card. A photo of the card being presented at that time. [Encapsulated between two layers of transparent plastic film] It is also known. This film is typically made from a high melting point treatment, usually polyester. A laminated membrane consisting of two layers, including a base layer and a thermoplastic inner tube, for example of polyethylene. It is formed of. The photo-enclosed card is heat-sealed between thermoplastic layers. so that the thermoplastic layer is bonded to a and bonded to the card surface. The problem with such proof cards is that they are counterfeit. It is possible. The gel coating shown in the photo bonds easily with the overlying thermoplastic film. then remove that thermoplastic film to expose the photo. The photo can then be modified or replaced. can.

The advantage of this invention is that it is more difficult to counterfeit and relatively easy to manufacture in large quantities. The simple thing to do is to provide a verification card.

According to one percent* of the present invention, by facsimile printing on the card. Write the above lkIgR on the above card, and write the predetermined type sentence on that card. Write the data of the above letters and numbers on the above card by printing each letter. information regarding the holder of the card and its designation and/or use, including the process; An identification card with numerical data as well as an image that is characteristic of the cardholder. A method is provided to create a code. The facsimile printing process considered above is Use ink or toner to bond cards or other This is the process of repopulating the image onto the substrate. The intended purpose is to form on the substrate. Using electrostatic techniques to sensitize the substrate to the corresponding m1lK pattern Existing facsimile printers are a secret. Its base 4& is electrostatically charged , so that the substrate is machined by aspirating toner material in a reciprocal manner corresponding to the desired image. Can be done. Using this technique, a completely gray scale image can be obtained. that toner is attached to its group 111, usually by heat treatment.

The main benefits of using this method to write the certificate card K11ii411 are: , as described above, the capsules are placed between the printed card vm-compatible film. When printing, the toner or toner used to create the density of the printed image The ink becomes tightly bonded to the thermoplastic layer, so that it becomes lIA K is physically separated, as is the case with photographic techniques that use photographic gels containing nine drugs. It is impossible to do so.

Trying to enrich the ID card (・Information with colored letters and numbers is printed normally. printed using technology, i.e. using a printing press with predetermined type letters can be done.

When creating the certificate card, preferably the sample or original of the above image is printed on a computer. stored in the computer's memory, digitized for storage, and then The digitized signal is then faxed to print the image on the identification card. It is supplied to the shimiri printing 5. Also, the letter and number you are trying to print on that card. The textual data is then provided to an on-line/printer for printing on the above card. A key number is typed into the computer's memory in digital form in order to ing.

Certification cards typically include singular or numerical certification features. one Such an l# sign indicates that the card is the same as the facsimile number and the desired letters and numbers. β) The certification form must be pre-printed before printing. So As mentioned before, with a set of proofs preprinted between the thermoplastic layers, When such cards are encapsulated, the ink on the certificate format is also encapsulated. It has been found that it is tightly bonded to the thermoplastic layer.

As a result of one of the seven, the certificate format pre-printed on the card will also be destroyed. It is not possible to modify the IKL image formed by facsimile printing without becomes virtually impossible. The completed capsule card is made of regular card paper. By tearing the foundation, even if it is torn, do you first dissolve the proof print? , or without penetrating it, form the image after the thermoplastic top layer. It is impossible to reach the toner or ink that is As a result, the image Any modifications will be immediately apparent.

Moreover, when the image is digitized in the computer's memory, The writing of the certificate is done before the image is printed by facsimile on the card. Digitally added to the statue by pewter is compared to fishing gear.

The subsequent printing cannot be physically separated from the image printed on the card. can be seen.
