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.
