Abstract The negotiable document which may be used, e.g. by airlines includes a cover sheet provided with a hot spot carbon or other image transfer medium and at least one underlying sheet fully or partly coated with microcapsules of a dye intensifier and attractor. When information is imprinted on the cover sheet, the microcapsules of the dye intensifier in the underlying sheet are burst to wet the sheet and, thus, allow impregnation of the image transferred by the hot spot carbon into the fibers of the sheet. At the same time, the dye within the hot spot carbon is attracted into the sheet. The impregnation of the sheet is sufficient to prevent removal of the image from the underlying sheet without first destroying the sheet or mutilating it in such a manner that the defalcation effort is obvious.
A negotiable document comprising a cover sheet having designated spaces on a front surface thereof to receive information and a layer of hot spot carbon on a back surface thereof in alignment with each of said designated spaces; and at least one duplicating sheet disposed under said cover sheet, said duplicating sheet having designated spaces on a front surface thereof to receive a copy of the information placed on said spaces of said cover sheet and a coating of microcapsules of oleic acid for impregnating said duplicating sheet with the received copy.
