- It's called backlight, the type of installation in which the image is transilluminator, commonly by a source of artificial light. In general can be divided into two main groups; printed on the vinyl and printed on a transparent photo-type Duratrans. The vinyls are special outdoor as well resist the weather, and fototransparencias are special for indoor environments as they have great definition, a high-quality photo and brilliance.
