More about the process can be read here.

the text is copyrighted material, but explains it well written.

Here is Kodaks own manual on the process.

It is reported in Eder, Josef Maria - Das Pigmentverfahren,...

The term chemistry of photographic processes has changed and it now in science has a different meaning in the language used in historical books and papers.

Some of the classical photography processes now has a meaning in solid state semiconductor manufacturing. Hence the sources cannot be translated unless the change in meaning of photo mechanical reproduction is noticed.

wildly incomplete

This article is quite incomplete. There are other forms of dye-transfer photography, not just those for making motion pictures. WilliamSommerwerck (talk) 13:28, 16 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Holy shit are/were you ever right. There are only two references for the entire article, and most of the article is illegible because it makes a whole barrel of technical claims without any reference or even explanation. — TheHerbalGerbil(TALK|STALK), 01:53, 30 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Technicolor used the Dye Transfer Process, but the Kodak Dye Transfer process was used for strip ins in advertising where three shots were combined: a background, a model or models and a pack shot. The background was blocked out to leave a white space between the two, or three photos and Dye Transfer retouchers could fill in the space using the same dyes as the print was made with.

With other processes, the camera would pick up the differences between colour values used in the print, and whatever retouching dyes were used. Or rather the sensitive material's response would differ from that of the human eye.

Then came computers.

The method derived from monochrome imbibition printing in monochrome using a bichromate developer that differentially hardened gelatine and was washed off with hot water. RPSM (talk) 12:54, 25 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
