| Abstract: | The article presents information on the choices that are available for selecting the most appropriate halftoning technology. Technology education teachers who expose their students to visual communication processes are often called upon to help them understand the appropriate use of conventional and contemporary halftone screening technologies when reproducing photographs using ink on paper. Halftoning technologies allow printed photographs to be composed of varying types of dots or spots that can contribute to, or detract from, the faithful and effective reproduction of photographs. Before students can select the most appropriate halftoning technology, they must understand the choices that are available. The choice of halftoning technology depends upon inputs (original photographs), processes (graphic design, prepress, and printing technologies), and outputs (purpose of the printed product). Conventional, stochastic, amplitude modulated, frequency modulated, dot shape, lines per inch, and dots per inch, are all terms associated with printing that describe the process of converting a continuous tone image into a halftone. |
