Abstract
An image forming method for forming a partially glossy image including a matte expression portion and a gloss expression portion, based on image data input to a liquid discharge apparatus, the image data being divided into matte-expression-portion data and gloss-expression-portion data, the image forming method including: forming the matte expression portion on a cloth fabric based on the matte-expression-portion data; producing a transfer film having an inverted image of the gloss expression portion by performing printing on a film base based on the gloss-expression-portion data; and forming the gloss expression portion by performing transfer onto the cloth fabric using the transfer film.
Claims6
An image forming method for forming a partially glossy image including a matte expression portion and a gloss expression portion, based on image data input to a liquid discharge apparatus, the image data being divided into matte-expression-portion data and gloss-expression-portion data, the image forming method comprising:
- forming the matte expression portion on a cloth fabric based on the matte-expression-portion data;
- producing a transfer film having an inverted image of the gloss expression portion by performing printing on a film base based on the gloss-expression-portion data;
- and
- forming the gloss expression portion by performing transfer onto the cloth fabric using the transfer film.
A non-transitory recording medium storing a plurality of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform an image forming method for forming a partially glossy image including a matte expression portion and a gloss expression portion, based on image data input to a liquid discharge apparatus, the image data being divided into matte-expression-portion data and gloss-expression-portion data, the image forming method comprising:
- forming the matte expression portion on a cloth fabric based on the matte-expression-portion data;
- producing a transfer film having an inverted image of the gloss expression portion by performing printing on a film base based on the gloss-expression-portion data;
- and
- forming the gloss expression portion by performing transfer onto the cloth fabric using the transfer film.
An image forming system for forming a partially glossy image including a matte expression portion and a gloss expression portion, based on image data input to a liquid discharge apparatus, the image data being divided into matte-expression-portion data and gloss-expression-portion data, the image forming system comprising:
- the liquid discharge apparatus including a head to form the matte expression portion on a cloth fabric based on the matte-expression-portion data;
- and
- circuitry configured to control the liquid discharge apparatus to:
- produce a transfer film having an inverted image of the gloss expression portion by performing printing on a film base based on the gloss-expression-portion data;
- and
- form the gloss expression portion by performing transfer onto the cloth fabric using the transfer film, wherein
- formation of the matte expression portion and production of the transfer film are performed in parallel.
