Color Shift of Printing with Hybrid Halftone Images for Overlay Misalignment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Color printing proceeds with multiple halftone separations overlay. Because of separation overlay misalignment in printing, the percentage of different primary color combination may vary and it will result in color shift. In traditional printing procedure with AM halftone, every separation has different screening angle to make the superposition pattern in a random style, which will reduce the color shift. To evaluate the color shift of printing with hybrid halftoning, we simulate printing procedure with halftone images overlay and calculate the color difference between expected color and color in different overlay misalignment configurations. The color difference for hybrid halftone and AM halftone is very close. So the color shift for hybrid halftone is acceptable with current color printing procedure. Keywords—color printing, AM halftone, Hybrid halftone, misalignment, color shift, Neugebauer Color Equation

Hybrid Watermarking Scheme for Halftone Images
As digital halftone images are widely used in the printing of books, magazines, newspapers and computer printers, the ease with which perfect copies can be made, may lead to large-scale unauthorized copying. Watermarking has been considered for many copy prevention and copyright protection applications. The hybrid watermarking system is proposed for halftone images that the watermarks embedded ...

This paper challenges the problem of estimating the original red–green–blue (RGB) image from a black-and-white (B&W) halftone image with homogeneously distributed dot patterns. To achieve this goal, training RGB images are converted into color-embedded gray images using the conventional reversible color to gray conversion method, and then converted into halftone images using error diffusion in ...
متن کاملA Review on Scanned color image improvement using image descreening
To print continuous tone images, Electrophotographic (EP) printer uses halftoning technique. Image halftoning prints the image as matrix of dots which are halftone patterns those are hardly perceived by human eyes. So scanned images obtained from such hard printed copies are normally affected by screen like artifacts and moiré patterns. Scanned color Image improvement using Image descreening te...

The stochastic screen has traditionally been used to preserve images with fine features as well as to reduce printing Moiré of images that contain input periodic structures. However, the stochastic screen also has experienced more difficulty in maintaining color stability in long press runs. Kodak, using its multilevel printing architecture, has created a new stochastic screening technology, wi...
متن کاملPer-separation clustered-dot color halftone watermarks: separation estimation based on spatial frequency content
A framework for clustered-dot color halftone watermarking is considered, wherein watermark patterns are embedded in individual colorant halftones prior to printing and embedded watermarks are detected from scans of the printed images after obtaining estimates of the individual halftone separations. The principal challenge in this methodology arises in the watermark detection phase. Typical thre...
