Abstract: Embedding data in printed image features on a receiver printed with an offset printing process includes a first offset printing member (240) for forming an image (320) on the first offset printing member. A second offset printing member (260) is roughened in one region (280) of the second offset printing member within a boundary of an image feature on the first offset printing member to embed data (330). Ink is applied to the first offset printing member and transferred from the first offset printing member to the second offset printing member. The ink from the second offset printing member is applied to a receiver (305) and the embedded data is printed within the boundary of the at least one image feature transferred to the receiver.

Abstract: A method for adjusting dot-gain for a halftone binary bitmap file comprises inputting a halftone binary bitmap file consisting of binary pixels (400) to an asymmetric digital filter (500). The binary pixels are filtered with the asymmetric digital filter and generates multi-level pixels (506). The multi-level pixel are compared to a preset level (408) and generates a binary pixel output (410). The binary pixel output is collected and forms an adjusted halftone binary bitmap file (270).

Abstract: An apparatus and method for applying dot-gain (110) compensation to halftone bitmap files used in printing a digital halftone image. Dot-gain is added by thresholding (250) the output of a convolution of the original bitmap image with a spatial filter (200). Averaging (220) is performed to specify the level of the threshold to be applied. The level of dot-gain applied is a function of the threshold level.

Abstract: A system that includes multiple, elliptical writing spots produced by a single, integrated laser diode array head. The beams, generated by the array and shaped by beam shaping optics into the elliptical spots, are scanned across a thermal media writing plural lines at the same time. The elliptical writing spots have an energy profile and a concatenated, angular orientation and staggered arrangement that, due to the thermal interaction of the spots on the media, creates substantially Gaussian thermal profiles in the media.
