halftoned
Dots simulate gray
Halftoned describes an image that has been converted to a halftone—a printing technique that reproduces continuous tones through patterns of dots of varying size or spacing.
A halftoned photograph appears solid from a distance but reveals its dot structure up close.
The halftoned images gave the newspaper its characteristic grainy look.
