Description

Procédé de traitement de documents destiné à perturber la reproduction par photocopie et produits pour la mise en oeuyre de ce procédé Process for processing documents intended to disrupt reproduction by photocopying and products for implementing this process
La présente invention concerne un procédé de traitement de documents notamment sous forme de feuilles de papier ou de plastique imprimés en vue de rendre leur reproduction par photocopie reconnaissable du document original. De nombreux documents commerciaux, industriels ou fiduciaires présentent un caractère de haute confidentialité et/ou une valeur juridique importante: actes notariés, rapports confidentiels, certificats et attestations, titres officiels, ...The present invention relates to a document processing method in particular in the form of sheets of paper or plastic printed in order to make their reproduction by photocopy recognizable from the original document. Many commercial, industrial or fiduciary documents have a high confidentiality and / or significant legal value: notarial acts, confidential reports, certificates and attestations, official titles, ...
Les moyens de reproduction actuels tels la photocopie, et notamment la photocopie couleur, permettent de réaliser des copies de la plupart des documents avec une qualité telle qu'il devient très difficile voire impossible de reconnaitre la copie de l'original.Current means of reproduction such as photocopying, and in particular color photocopying, make it possible to make copies of most documents with a quality such that it becomes very difficult if not impossible to recognize the copy of the original.
Cela entraine dans certains cas une insécurité juridique et autorise toute sorte de fraudes et d'abus pouvant léser l'autorité et les intérêts de la personne morale ou physique dont émane le document original et peut porter préjudice à un tiers à qui il est transmis une reproduction frauduleuse au lieu du document original.This leads in some cases to legal uncertainty and authorizes all kinds of fraud and abuse which could harm the authority and the interests of the legal or natural person from which the original document emanates and can be prejudicial to a third party to whom it is transmitted. fraudulent reproduction in place of the original document.
On a proposé dans l'art antérieur diverses solutions.Various solutions have been proposed in the prior art.
On peut notamment citer le choix de certains couples de couleurs pour le papier et l'encre d'impression tels que la réponse du senseur de la photocopieuse noir et blanc soit le même pour chacune des couleurs et traduisent donc par un même niveau de gris le fond et le texte imprimé. Le contraste est ainsi notablement diminué au point de rendre la photocopie inutilisable. Ceci est notamment réalisé par impression à l'encre bleue sur fond jaune ou encre noire sur fond rouge.We can notably cite the choice of certain pairs of colors for the paper and the printing ink such that the response of the sensor of the black and white photocopier is the same for each of the colors and therefore translate by the same gray level. background and printed text. The contrast is thus notably reduced to the point of rendering the photocopy unusable. This is achieved in particular by printing in blue ink on a yellow background or black ink on a red background.
Cette solution présente plusieurs inconvénients. Outre une présentation inhabituelle et inesthétique et la possiblité dé faire une reproduction identique à l'original par photocopie couleur, on peut reproduire de tels documents à l'aide d'une photocopieuse noir et blanc en insérant un filtre transparent, ayant la même couleur que le fond du document, entre le document et la glace d'exposition. On augmente alors suffisamment le contraste pour rendre la photocopie lisible.This solution has several drawbacks. In addition to an unusual and unsightly presentation and the possibility of making a reproduction identical to the original by color photocopy, one can reproduce such documents using a black and white photocopier by inserting a transparent filter, having the same color as the bottom of the document, between the document and the document glass. The contrast is then increased enough to make the photocopy readable.
La présente invention a pour objet un procédé de traitement de documents destiné à les rendre non copiables ou au moins reconnaissables de leur reproduction par photocopie évitant de tels inconvénients.The present invention relates to a document processing method intended to make them non-copiable or at least recognizable from their reproduction by photocopying avoiding such drawbacks.
Le procédé selon l'invention consiste à traiter la surface du document avec une matrice transparente comportant au moins deux matières photoluminescentes absorbant le rayonnement lumineux incident dans une première bande de longueurs d'onde déterminée.The method according to the invention consists in treating the surface of the document with a transparent matrix comprising at least two photoluminescent materials absorbing the incident light radiation in a first wavelength band determined.
De telles cascades lumineuses sont connues et déjà décrites dans les brevets français Nº 7609321 et N° 8116678 du demandeur. Le principe de la photocopie par électrocopie est la suivante : dans l'obscurité, un tambour recouvert d'une mince coubhe de semi-conducteurs est balayé par une grille conductrice portée à une tension élevée. Cette grille communique des charges électrostatiques à la couche semi-conductrice devenue photosensible. L'image du document original placé sur la glace d'exposition est projetée par l'intermédiaire d'un objectif sur cette couche photosensible. Lès zones atteintes par la lumière perdent leurs charges électriques tandis que celles restées dans l'ombre les conservent. On a alors sur le tambour une copie invisible du document sous forme de charges positives. En tournant sur un axe, le tambour attire ensuite les poudres d'encre chargées négativement sur les zones chargées.Such light cascades are known and already described in the French patents Nº 7609321 and N ° 8116678 of the applicant. The principle of photocopying by electrocopying is as follows: in the dark, a drum covered with a thin layer of semiconductors is swept by a conductive grid brought to a high voltage. This grid communicates electrostatic charges to the semiconductor layer which has become photosensitive. The image of the original document placed on the document glass is projected via a lens onto this photosensitive layer. Areas affected by light lose their electrical charges while those that remain in the shade keep them. We then have on the drum an invisible copy of the document in the form of positive charges. By turning on an axis, the drum then attracts the negatively charged ink powders on the charged areas.
Ces charges seront ensuite déposées sur une feuille de papier faiblement chargéepositivement et fixées par des moyens connus, notamment par chauffage.These charges will then be deposited on a sheet of paper lightly positively charged and fixed by known means, in particular by heating.
La courbe de réponse spectrale du photocopieur dépend d'une part de la courbe spectrale de la source d'éclairage du document à reproduire, d'autre part de la courbe spectrale de la couche photosensible.The spectral response curve of the photocopier depends on the one hand on the spectral curve of the light source of the document to be reproduced, on the other hand on the spectral curve of the photosensitive layer.
Compte tenu des phénomènes physiques intervenant dans la reproduction d'un document, la courbe de réponse diffère sensiblement de la courbe de perception spectrale de l'oeil humain, et c'est cette différence que la présente invention se propose d'exploiter.Given the physical phenomena involved in the reproduction of a document, the response curve differs significantly from the spectral perception curve of the human eye, and it is this difference that the present invention proposes to exploit.
La photocopie couleur utilise le même principe et met en jeu trois ou quatre rouleaux pour chacune des couleurs primaires.Color photocopying uses the same principle and involves three or four rolls for each of the primary colors.
La présente invention a pour objet un procédé de traitement d'un document par une matrice contenant au moins un dopant photoluminescent, dont la plage d'absorption correspond à une plage de forte sensibilité du photocopieur, et la plage de réémission, à une plage de faible sensibilité du photocopieur, en vue de diminuer très fortement le contraste de la copie, ou dont la plage d'absorption correspond à une plage de faible sensibilité du photocopieur, et la plage de réémission à une plage de saturation du photocopieur, dans le but de saturer le capteur photosensible du photocopieur et d'obtenir une copie trop claire.The subject of the present invention is a method of processing a document with a matrix containing at least one photoluminescent dopant, the absorption range of which corresponds to a range of high sensitivity of the photocopier, and the re-emission range, to a range of low sensitivity of the copier, with a view to greatly reducing the contrast of the copy, or the absorption range of which corresponds to a range of low sensitivity of the copier, and the range of re-transmission to a range of saturation of the copier, in order to saturate the photocopier's photosensitive sensor and obtain a copy that is too clear.
Les matières photoluminescentes forment des"cascades lumineuses". Selon un mode de réalisation préféré de la présente invention, on dépose à la surface du document une matrice contenant au moins une cascade lumineuse absorbant le rayonnement de la source lumineuse de la photocopieuse dans la partie du spectre proche de l'ultra-violet et réemettant un rayonnement de longueur d'ondes supérieur dans une bande spectrale pour laquelle la couche photoconductrice présente une faible sensibilité. On provoque ainsi une perturbation importante de la reproduction et la photocopie obtenue est très peu lisible.Photoluminescent materials form "light cascades". According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a matrix is deposited on the surface of the document containing at least one light cascade absorbing the radiation from the light source of the photocopier in the part of the spectrum close to ultraviolet and reemitting radiation of greater wavelength in a spectral band for which the photoconductive layer has a low sensitivity. This causes a significant disturbance in reproduction and the photocopy obtained is very difficult to read.
Selon un autre mode de réalisation, on dépose à la surface du document une matrice contenant une première cascade lumineuse selon la réalisation décrite dans le mode préféré, ainsi qu'au moins une autre cascade lumineuse présentant une bande d'absorbtion dans le spectre visible et une bande de réemission dans une plage de longueur d'ondes supérieure du spectre visible et destinée à modifier la couleur de fond du document obtenu par photocopie couleur.According to another embodiment, a matrix is deposited on the surface of the document containing a first light cascade according to the embodiment described in the preferred mode, as well as at least one other light cascade having an absorption band in the visible spectrum and a retransmission band in a longer wavelength range of the visible spectrum and intended to modify the background color of the document obtained by color photocopying.
Selon un troisième mode de réalisation, on dépose à la surface du document une matrice contenant un couple de cascades lumineuses choisi de telle manière que les longueurs de réemission forment, pour la courbe de chromaticité de l'oeil, un couple bichromique complémentaire et que le rapport des concentrations de chacune des cascades lumineuses soit sensiblement égal au rapport de chromaticité de leur réemission. Ce document ainsi traité apparaît blanc pour l'oeil humain mais du fait de la non linéarité de la réponse des photocopieuses couleur la reproduction sera fortement colorée. Selon une variante de ce mode de réalisation, on choisit un triplet de cascades lumineuses dont les bandes de réemission forment un triplet trichromique complémentaire pour la courbe de chromaticité de l'oeil, leurs concentrations respectives étant proportionnelles à leur poids chromatique.According to a third embodiment, a matrix is deposited on the surface of the document containing a pair of light cascades chosen in such a way that the re-emission lengths form, for the chromaticity curve of the eye, a complementary bichromic couple and that the ratio of the concentrations of each of the light cascades is substantially equal to the chromaticity ratio of their remission. This document thus treated appears white to the human eye but due to the non-linearity of the response from color photocopiers, the reproduction will be strongly colored. According to a variant of this embodiment, a triplet of light cascades is chosen, the remission bands of which form a complementary three-color triplet for the chromaticity curve of the eye, their respective concentrations being proportional to their chromatic weight.
Selon un mode de mise en oeuvre préféré du procédé et selon l'invention, la matrice contenant les cascades lumineuses est appliquée sur le document à traiter par pulvérisation ou par enduction.According to a preferred embodiment of the method and according to the invention, the matrix containing the light cascades is applied to the document to be treated by spraying or by coating.
Selon une variante, la matrice constitue un film transparent autoadhésif.According to a variant, the matrix constitutes a self-adhesive transparent film.
Selon un autre mode de réalisation, la matrice constitue un support pouvant être imprimé par des moyens d'imprimerie classique. D'autres formes de réalisation et avantages ressortiront mieux de la description qui va suivre : la figure 1 représente une coupe shématique d'un document traité selon l'invention. La figure 1 montre un document constitué d'un support classique(1) tel qu'une feuille de papier comportant des inscriptions (2) réalisées notamment par impression à l'encre ou tout autre moyen connu. Le document est recouvert d'une matrice transparente (3) comportant des dopants (4) formant des cascades lumineuses. Les cascades lumineuses (4) absorbent le rayonnement incident (5) dans une bande de longueur d'ondes variable selon le type de cascade lumineuse et réemet un rayonnement (6) dans une bande de longueur d'ondes différente et généralement supérieure. Le rayonnement incident (7) peut également être absorbé par des zones sombres du document, notamment par les inscriptions (2) si le document est réalisé en impression sombre sur fond clair. Il en résulte que le rayonnement diffusé par le document traité et capté par la photocopieuse sera différent de celui qui aurait été diffusé par le document non traité et induire des perturbations dans la reproduction.According to another embodiment, the matrix constitutes a support which can be printed by conventional printing means. Other embodiments and advantages will emerge more clearly from the description which follows: FIG. 1 represents a schematic section of a document treated according to the invention. FIG. 1 shows a document consisting of a conventional support (1) such as a sheet of paper comprising inscriptions (2) produced in particular by printing with ink or any other known means. The document is covered with a transparent matrix (3) comprising dopants (4) forming light cascades. The light cascades (4) absorb the incident radiation (5) in a band of variable wavelength according to the type of light cascade and re-emits radiation (6) in a band of different and generally longer wavelength. The incident radiation (7) can also be absorbed by dark areas of the document, in particular by the inscriptions (2) if the document is produced in dark printing on a light background. As a result, the radiation diffused by the processed document and picked up by the photocopier will be different from that which would have been diffused by the unprocessed document and induce disturbances in reproduction.
Selon une variante, on utilise deux séries de dopants dont les longueurs d'ondes de réémission sont complémentaires pour la courbe de perception de l'oeil humain. L'oeil humain perçoit les radiations électromagnétiques de longueurs d'ondes comprises entre 3800 Å et 7800 Å, et la perception d'une couleur peut être représentée dans un système polaire par un vecteur d'angle g et de longueur L. A chaque longueur d'onde correspond un vecteur de perception. Il est possible d'établir un tableau précisant l'angle g et la longueur L du vecteur polaire pour l'ensemble des longueurs d'ondes du spectre visible, pour lesquels l'oeil humain aura une même perception. According to a variant, two series of dopants are used, the remission wavelengths of which are complementary for the perception curve of the human eye. The human eye perceives electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 3800 Å and 7800 Å, and the perception of a color can be represented in a polar system by a vector of angle g and length L. At each length wave corresponds to a perception vector. It is possible to establish a table specifying the angle g and the length L of the polar vector for all the wavelengths of the visible spectrum, for which the human eye will have the same perception.
Figure imgf000007_0001
Deux longueurs d'onde sont dites complémentaires si leurs angles correspondant sont sensiblement opposés, c'est-à-dire différents d'environ 180°.
Figure imgf000007_0001
Two wavelengths are said to be complementary if their corresponding angles are substantially opposite, that is to say different by about 180 °.
L'oeil humain aura une impression de blanc équilibré si la concentration respective de chacun des dopants est inversement proportionnelle à la chromaticité L correspondant à la longueur d'onde de réémission.The human eye will have a balanced white impression if the respective concentration of each of the dopants is inversely proportional to the chromaticity L corresponding to the re-emission wavelength.

Ces matières photoluminescentes sont connues par elles-mêmes et distribuées commercialement. On peut citer les corps suivants à titre d'exemple non limitatif :The doping materials used for implementing the method according to the invention are generally cyclic aromatic materials containing several nuclei, preferably between 3 and 15.
