A composition susceptible to changing colour upon the application of energy, wherein the composition comprises a colour former and a tinting colourant, wherein the tinting colourant has a complementary colour to that of the composition comprising the colour former without tinting colourant. Preferably, the composition 5 also comprises an energy absorbing additive. The invention also provides a method of improving contrast when a composition susceptible to changing colour is imaged. |
