A color filter having a light-transmissive support and two or more
color-developing layers, which develop hues differing from each other,
laminated on the support. Each color-developing layer is developed into a
predetermined color pattern including pixels. The pixels of the developed
color patterns of the layers either overlap in a direction of lamination
or do not overlap in the direction of lamination. Also provided are a
color filter forming material produced by laminating the two or more
photosensitive and heat-sensitive color-developing layers on the
light-transmissive support, and a process for producing a color filter by
exposing each photosensitive and heat-sensitive color-developing layer of
the above color filter forming material to form a predetermined pattern,
heating the photosensitive and heat-sensitive color-developing layers, and
fixing the developed color patterns.
