A method and apparatus to form an image by half-toning a plurality of areas of an input image using different multi-tone patterns with reference to edge information regarding edge areas and flat areas detected from the input image. The method includes detecting edge areas and flat areas of an input image, half-toning the input image by applying different multi-tone patterns to the detected edge and flat areas, and generating a half-toned image for the input image by integrating the edge and flat areas that have been half-toned with the different multi-tone patterns.
