<p>An image processing system for preparing a color document for printing, each discrete area or pixel in the image described by a signal having a number of possible states greater than can be rendered by a selected printer, in which each separation of the image is halftoned, with at least one of the separations processed with a non-periodic halftoning method (108), and at least one of the remaining separations processed with a periodic pattern (100,102,104). Preferably, in a printer printing with colorants approximating cyan, magenta, yellow and black, one of the non-yellow separations is processed with the non-periodic halftoning method.</p> |
