(57) Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a dry image forming material and a dry image forming method which have high stability against humidity change and high image maximum density. A layer having microcapsules containing at least a photocurable compound, a photoinitiator, a dye precursor and a specific compound in an internal phase on a support, and a layer containing the microcapsules or an adjacent layer. In a layer to be formed, a dry image forming material containing a developer, and this dry image forming material, A dry image forming method in which after imagewise exposure, the entire image forming material is pressurized to microscopically destroy microcapsules to form a dye image. |
