A toner for developing an electrostatic latent image is provided that can prevent occurrence of blister even with coated paper having a coated surface, exhibits excellent releasing performance in oilless fixing, and realizes both high glossiness and OHP transparency for an image to be formed. A process for producing the toner, a developer containing the toner, and a process for forming an image using the toner are also provided. The toner for developing an electrostatic latent image contains a binder resin, a releasing agent and a colorant, in which the binder resin has a number average molecular weight (Mn) in a range of from 9,000 to 18,000 and a molecular weight distribution represented by a ratio (Mw/Mn) of a weight average molecular weight (Mw) and a number average molecular weight (Mn) of 2.5 or less, and the binder resin contains a vinyl resin. |
