The invention relates to a secured document (100) comprising: a substrate (101) partially covered in at least two, preferably non-overlapping regions with an additional layer, wherein a first effect layer (104) made of a material susceptible to deformation under the influence of an
external pressure force and reflecting light, having a high
light reflectance coefficient, is applied to at least a first substrate region (106), and a second print layer (103) made of a reflective, color, high-
viscosity coating material, which modifies the substrate (101), is applied to at least a second substrate region (107); and wherein on at least the first region (106) of the substrate there is a first security element (102) which is an embossed optical element (108) comprising an embossed structure made by the gravure method in the form of a grid (400) of cells (401), preferably equilateral cells, most preferably square cells, wherein a single
cell (401) corresponds to a
single point of the first security element (102) forming, together with the remaining points of the grid, a globally perceptible, information-bearing first security element (102), and in which cells (401) there are sub-images (403) formed by convex embossed lines (402) parallel to the remaining ones present in the
cell, having a predetermined height (h) in relation to the surface of the substrate (101) between the lines (402), modified with a material susceptible to deformation under the influence of an
external pressure force and reflecting light, having a high
light reflectance coefficient, which lines (402) in each of the cells (401) of the grid (400) are parallel to each other, and the
angle of inclination of the lines relative to the selected
axis of symmetry, identical for all cells, of the first security element (102) defined in the plane of the substrate (101) is constant within each of the cells (401) of the grid (400) and varies within the range from 1 to 180°, and the number of lines (402) in each of the cells (401) of the grid (400) is equal to or greater than three and the maximum distance measured between the most distant points of each of the cells (401) does not exceed 1 mm, preferably is less than 0.7 mm, more preferably is less than 0.5 mm and most preferably is less than 0.1 mm.
