    摘要: A method for minimizing boundary effects when switching between halftone screens on a scanline, includes selecting a first halftone screen having a first fundamental frequency and a first angle for printing pixels of a first type; and selecting a second halftone screen having a second fundamental frequency and a second angle for printing pixels of a second type, wherein the second frequency and second angle are harmonically matched to the first frequency and first angle, wherein at least one pixel of the second type is adjacent to a pixel of the first type. In one embodiment, the first and second frequencies are selected to have a substantially zero frequency beat. In another, the first and second frequencies are selected to have a substantially high frequency beat.

    摘要: Moiré free color halftoning is achieved through the use of two dot screens and one or two line screens. The line screens may be, for example hybrid line screens. Frequency vectors associated with the screens combine to produce moiré frequency vectors representing moiré frequencies above or below the visual range. In one embodiment lines screens are used to halftone yellow and black separations and dot screens are used to halftone cyan and magenta separations. The dot screens are oriented at 15 and 75 degrees. The line screens are oriented at 45 and 135 degrees. Selected screens and screen orientations minimize screen interaction with mechanical or optical artifacts of a rendering device, thereby minimizing mechanical and optical moiré.

    摘要: Characteristics of text or text components or features are considered when selecting halftoning screens. For example, an italic slant angle of text is recognized and used to select or generate a compatible halftone screen oriented at the same angle. A screen frequency may be selected based on a thickness of a text component. Descriptive tags associated with text or text components facilitate screen selection. Tags are assigned based on font descriptions included in a document during authoring. Alternatively, tags are assigned based on the results of document segmentation and character recognition techniques. An image processing system operative to consider characteristics of text or text components when selecting halftone screens includes a text component characteristic recognizer, a halftone screen selector and a halftoner. Optionally a print engine is also included. In a xerographic environment the print engine includes a xerographic printer.
