some predefined patterns and you can choose which one to use for your document.
 Diffusion
Dots are put at random to create the halftones. Use for printing photographs that have delicate shades and
graphics.
 Dither
Dots are arranged in a pre-defined pattern to make halftones. Use for printing graphics that have definite
color boundaries or for printing charts such as business charts.
