ABSTRACT:
A method of constructing a screen for halftoning a digitized image is described, in which a composite screen is established. A composite LUT having m times n rank ordered threshold elements is constructed for use in halftoning digitized images. A variety of optimization techniques can be employed to improve the visual appeal of the images rendered using the composite LUT for rendering a variety of image types in single or multicolored imaging applications.
