Abstract:
In an example, a method includes, by one or more processors, receiving a greyscale image having a plurality of pixels, each pixel being associated with a grey level, and the greyscale image having a first number of grey levels. An order of the pixels may be determined based on the grey level. A second number of grey levels may be determined, wherein the second number of grey levels is greater than the first number, and an indication of a target number of pixels per grey level of the second number of grey levels may be further be determined. Taking the pixels in order, and based on the target number of pixels per grey level, a new grey level may be allocated to each pixel to provide the second number of grey levels. The new grey levels may be converted to a threshold of a threshold halftone screen.
