A water-developable, photopolymerizable composition comprises an ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer, a nitrogen-containing compound capable of neutralizing the acrylic acid component of the copolymer, a reactive ethylenically unsaturated monomer or monomer combinations, and a photoinitiator activatable by actinic light. A printing plate coated with the composition is suited for use with water-containing emulsion inks for letterpress printing. |
