An ink-jet recording method providing an ink containing a fine resin particle,
a water-soluble dye, water and an organic solvent to an ink receiving sheet comprising
a support and a porous ink receiving layer coated on the support is disclosed.
In the method the difference of DL10 in the particle diameter distribution
of the fine resin particle in the ink and DM50 in the pore diameter
distribution of the porous layer measured using a mercury porosimeter (DL10-;DM50)
is not more than 170 nm.
