Abstract

Photosensitive polyesters having dye moieties incorporated into the polyester backbone are disclosed. The photosensitive polyesters contain an unsaturated photosensitive moiety comprising photopolymerizable --CH.dbd.CH--CO-- groups and dye moieties derived from dyes that are copolymerizable diols. Negative-working photosensitive elements, such as negative-working printing plates, can be prepared using these photosensitive polyesters.
