Abstract

A method of transferring a substance adhering to the surface of a substrate to a receiving surface of a backing element which includes locating the substrate surface in juxtaposition with the receiving surface, supplying a transfer medium on the receiving surface in sufficient quantity to encapsulate the substance, joining the transfer medium on the backing element with a substance so as to encapsulate the substance within the transfer medium and removing the substrate to expose the encapsulated substance.
