Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for characterizing the spatial variance of a color separation misregistration by using a method contributing to a real time measurement by a low resolution scanning technique. SOLUTION: A processor assembly 404 includes a calibration module 408 which decides the characteristic of a curve which corresponds to a calibration patch attached with a mark among two or more calibration patches and is related with a measured colorimetry value, generates a calibration function based on the characteristic of the curve, and provides an anticipated colorimetry value about a predetermined color separation structure relating with a misregistration characteristic value. In addition, the processor assembly 404 includes a measurement patch analyzer module 410 which decides the misregistration characteristic value corresponding to the measured colorimetry value corresponding to the measurement patch attached with a mark from a calibration function, and characterizes the misregistration of a first color separation to that of a second color separation.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a screen which has much more threshold levels to achieve a more excellent visible angle. SOLUTION: The method for designing a halftone/screen having rectangular zero shift / super cell includes steps of: selecting a desired angle between a first reference frame and a second reference frame; selecting a desired length to a first lateral side in a pair of lateral sides of a non-rectangular super cell in the first reference frame; determining a value corresponding to a polynomial side length to the first lateral side in the pair of lateral sides of the non-rectangular super cell in the first reference frame; selecting a real side length to a second lateral side based upon a determined polynomial side length of the second lateral side such that the number of centers in the rectangular zero shift / halftone / super cell becomes integral; and determining the number of centers in the rectangular zero shift / halftone / super cell based upon the side lengths of the first and second lateral sides of the non-rectangular super cell.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To generate tint dots through the combination of two threshold array and a small look-up table to generate halftone dots that are not grow monotonously. SOLUTION: A memory 52 stores values for two threshold arrays. A digital input from a generator 54 that provides an output of a desired toner converage or a function of a density of a current pixel is applied to a look-up table 51, where which of the two arrays is to be used is discriminated and from which an address bit is outputted to the memory 52. A current pixel address in the memory 52 is given to the memory 52 as a remainder address of addressing by a Holady's address generator 55, and output from the memory 52 is a digital threshold level, which is given to a comparator 53, where it is compared with the image input and from which '1' or '0' bit is outputted.
