Type Alias: HalftoneSeparation

HalftoneSeparation = "mono" | "rgb" | "cmyk"

Defined in: attributes/shape/effects/implementations/halftone.ts:24

How many plates the screen is separated into.

  • "mono" — one black screen over luminance. The newsprint look.
  • "cmyk" — four plates at the classic process angles (C 15°, M 75°, Y 0°, K 45°). Pulling the shared darkness onto a K plate is what keeps neutrals neutral, so this is the one that reads as printed.
  • "rgb" — one screen per RGB channel. Cheaper and occasionally the look you want, but with no K plate every grey prints three overlapping mid-dots, so anything neutral turns to colour noise. Prefer "cmyk" for print looks.
