Definition: Halftone refers to a continuous-tone image that is photographed through a screen to make different sized dots that may be reproduced during the printing process.  It is used in traditional publishing; one creates the digital halftones by sampling a continuous-tone image, and arranging numbers of dots; this in turn will simulate the various sized dots to create the same appearance.
