ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to the manipulation of differential gloss as may be inherent in halftoned images. By selectively applying halftones with anisotropic structure characteristics which are significantly different in orientation while remaining identical in density, a gloss image may be superimposed within an image without the need for special toners or paper. Conventional copier systems will not typically be able to copy such a superimposed gloss image.
