CONT

On utilise pour certains travaux en couleurs des faux-décalques ressemblant aux faux-décalques lithographiques. Après développement et teinture, ces feuilles montrent des images de faux-trait colorées en bleu, sur lesquelles on vient mettre en place les négatifs ou les positifs (le bleu, traversé par la lumière des lampes, ne gênera aucunement la copie).
