The present invention relates to creating differential gloss images in
clear toner by the manipulation of halftones employed prior to the
depositing of the clear toner layer upon a substrate. By selectively
applying halftones with anisotropic structure characteristics which are
significantly different in orientation although remaining identical in
density, a differential gloss image may be superimposed within even clear
toner as applied to paper. Further, this technique may be used to enhance
color toner Glossmark images across the low and high density areas of
application where the differential gloss effect would otherwise be weak.
