Abstract

A process for converting a normally positive working photosensitive composition to a negative working composition. One forms a composition containing an alkali soluble resin, a 1,2 quinone diazide-4-sulfonyl compound and an acid catalyzed crosslinker in a solvent mixture. After drying and imagewise exposing, the composition is baked and developed to produce a negative image.
