Abstract

A method (and system) for producing a halftoned image, includes calculating errors corresponding to a plurality of different viewing conditions of a halftone image, and minimizing a function of the errors, such that the halftoned image appears as a different image under different viewing conditions. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the halftoned image appears as the same image under different viewing conditions.
