Abstract:
A first pattern P 1  is formed with a first material for converting electromagnetic wave energy into heat energy, on a first surface BS of a print medium M including an expansion layer M 2  that expands by heating. A second pattern P 2  for expanding the expansion layer M 2  to complement expansion of the expansion layer M 2  by the first pattern P 1  is formed with a second material for converting electromagnetic wave energy into heat energy, on a second surface FS which is an opposite surface of the print medium M to the first surface BS and is closer to the expansion layer M 2  than the first surface BS. The first material forming the first pattern P 1  is irradiated with electromagnetic waves from the first surface BS. The second material forming the second pattern P 2  is irradiated with electromagnetic waves from the second surface FS.

Claim (Index 1):
A method comprising:\n a first pattern forming step of forming a first pattern with a first material on a first surface of a print medium,\n wherein at least a region of the first pattern has a uniform density, \n wherein the print medium comprises an expansion layer configured to expand by heating, and \n wherein the first material of the first pattern is selected to convert electromagnetic wave energy of electromagnetic waves irradiated thereon into heat energy to expand the expansion layer to form a first structure; and \n a second pattern forming step of forming a second pattern with a second material on a second surface of the print medium opposite to the first surface of the print medium,\n wherein the second pattern is formed in a part of the second surface of the print medium corresponding to a peripheral edge of the at least a region of the first pattern having uniform density, and \n wherein the second material of the second pattern is selected to convert electromagnetic wave energy of electromagnetic waves irradiated thereon into heat energy to expand the expansion layer to form a second structure that complements the first structure to form a resulting structure having an approximately uniform height.
