Abstract

An original continuous-tone picture is converted into a halftone picture, which is to be reproduced, on the basis of pictorial information from the original picture. The information is processed in such a way that the base density of a desired control point on the original picture and the halftone intensity of a corresponding control point on the halftone picture are correlated in accordance with a specific conversion formula.
