Electrophotographic transfer paper

An electrophotographic transfer paper comprising:

• a substrate;
• and
• coating layers formed on both sides of said substrate mainly including a pigment and an adhesive,
• wherein said paper has a glossiness of not less than 55% and satisfies the following condition when said paper packed in a package is unpacked and allowed to stand at a temperature of 28° C. in an atmosphere of 85%RH for 5 minutes:
• 0.8≦CA/D≦3.5
• wherein
• CA (μm) is the difference calculated by substracting a thickness of paper before allowed to stand from a thickness of paper after allowed to stand;
• D (g/cm3) is the density of said transfer paper;
• wherein the density of said paper falls within the range of from 0.95 to 1.20 g/cm3;
• and
• wherein each of the coating layers on both sides of the substrate is present in an amount of from 15 to about 50 g/m2.
