Abstract
The present invention provides 3 embodiments of a new image forming method. The image forming method uses a light-sensitive material and an removing sheet. The light-sensitive material comprises a support and a light-sensitive polymerizable layer provided thereon. Some embodiments of the light-sensitive material further have an adhesive layer. The light-sensitive polymerizable layer contains silver halide, a reducing agent and an ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable compound or/and a cross-linkable polymer. Some embodiments of the light-sensitive polymerizable layer further contain a colorant. The image forming method comprises an exposing step, a developing step and a removing step. Some embodiments of the image forming method further contains a toning step. The present invention is characterized in the removing step using a removing sheet.
