Abstract

Recording sheets are disclosed which comprise a support (I) having formed on a surface thereof an image-recording/receiving layer (II) selected from an ink-receiving layer (IIa) for receiving a water-based ink ejected by an ink-jet recording technique, a thermosensitive recording layer (IIb), a coating layer (IIc) for laser printing and a thermal transfer image-receiving layer (IId). The support (I) has a laminated structure comprising a plain weave fabric (A) and, bonded thereto with an adhesive, a water-proof stretched resin film (B) having a machine-direction Clark stiffness (S value) of from 8 to 300, a transverse-direction Clark stiffness of from 8 to 300 and a thickness of from 20 to 300 .mu.m. The image-recording/receiving layer (II) is provided on the support on the side where the stretched resin film layer (B) is present. The inventive recording sheets have a tough surface and have both excellent ink absorption and clarity of developed color. Also, the inventive recording papers are water-proof, provide a water-proof image and have excellent tear resistance.
