A method is proposed for producing a printed pattern containing a plastic design element on an authentication data carrier. For this purpose, individual starting images are provided by users. Printing data, which reproduce the starting image as a planar printed pattern, are generated from the individual starting images by combination with design specifications and boundary conditions. The starting image is applied in a first printing process as a planar printed pattern. Furthermore, an edge detection is carried out on the printing data in order to determine dominating edges in the starting image, which reproduce the contours of the motif contained in the starting image. A 3D printing template is created based on the dominating edges. A three-dimensional printed pattern is applied to the planar printed pattern in accordance with the 3D printing template in a second printing process.
