    Abstract: An image producing device that produces an image by thermally transferring an image pattern from a transfer ribbon to a transfer medium. The device includes take-up means for taking up the transfer ribbon, supply means for supplying the transfer ribbon according to the taking up of the transfer ribbon performed by the take-up means, thermal transfer means for thermally transferring an image to the transfer medium by bringing the transfer ribbon that is between the supply means and the take-up means into contact with the transfer medium, and a regulating means for regulating the supply of the transfer ribbon performed by the supply means.

    Abstract: A anti-counterfeiting medium includes a support substrate, an OVD forming layer, and a latent image layer in this order. The latent image layer has plural regions with optical axes of a birefringent material aligned in directions different from each other. The OVD forming layer includes an uneven-structure-forming layer is made up of a first region and a second region, and a reflecting layer. The first region is a region made up of a flat part and plural convexities or concavities. The second region is configured by a flat part. Each of the plural convexities and concavities has a 0.3 to 5 μm long side dimension and short side dimension and height or depth of 0.1 to 0.5 μm or less.

    Abstract: In an alignment regulating layer, a plurality of regulation regions is defined in plan view perpendicular to the surface of the alignment regulating layer, and the plurality of regulation regions includes at least one first regulation region, at least one second regulation region, and a third regulation region fitted between the first regulation region and the second regulation region. The alignment regulating direction in the first regulation region is a first regulating direction, and the alignment regulating direction in the second regulation region is a second regulating direction that is different from the first regulating direction. In the third regulation region, the alignment regulating direction continuously changes from the first regulating direction to the second regulating direction from a portion contacting the first regulation region toward a portion contacting the second regulation region.
