This happens when the specially designed printing press comes into contact with the banknote paper and the ink is forcibly drawn from the plate onto the paper under very high pressure. This process, called Intaglio, results in raised print and produces high quality clearly defined images. Intaglio printing is suitable for printing some areas requiring raised print such as the portrait of His Majesty the King or the numbers identifying value.
             Raised prints can be easily sensed in the area of the numerals indicating value up in the right corner and the letters ‘Thai Government’. The letters identifying value on the front side allows distinctively tactile feel to the touch more than any other areas.
