    Abstract: A halftone image generation system produces a replica of an original continuous tone pattern by utilizing halftone dots of substantially the same size. The continuous tones in the original pattern are duplicated in the halftone image thereof by varying the spacing between the halftone dots. The spaces between the halftone dots are, for example, small when a dense tone is duplicated, whereas the spacing is made larger when a less dense tone is duplicated. The halftone dot generator in the system may, for example, comprise an electronic imaging device that generates the halftone dots in the form of light radiation for focusing onto photographic film; or an optical device, such as a laser, that forms the halftone dots a indentations or cavities on a printing plate, or similar devices.
