A polyimide film in which the dimensional change is reduced when it has undergone a step of laminating a metal on the polyimide film or a step of etching the metal layer to form wiring, and the rate of dimensional change can be stabilized across the entire width is provided. The object can be solved by a polyimide film produced by a continuous process, wherein when a coefficient of linear expansion a in a direction of the molecular orientation axis and a coefficient of linear expansion b in a direction perpendicular to the molecular orientation axis are measured in the temperature range of 100.degree. C. to 200.degree. C., a and b satisfy a particular relationship across the entire width, or a polyimide film produced by a continuous process, wherein when a tear propagation resistance c in the direction of the molecular orientation axis and a tear propagation resistance d in the direction perpendicular to the molecular orientation axis are measured, c and d satisfy a particular relationship across the entire width.
