PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a toner for developing an electrostatic charge image exhibiting good chromaticity, high heat resistance, low fog, good OHP transparency and no odor, and a method for producing the toner. And an image forming method. SOLUTION: In a toner for developing an electrostatic image, the average horizontal diameter of the colorant in the toner particles is 10 nm to 500 nm. wherein the proportion of the colorant having a horizontal diameter of 2 nm to 300 nm is 50% by number or more, and the colorant contains a rhodamine compound or a lake of the compound. Image developing toner. |
