The present invention is a method and apparatus for reducing two-color moire often found during the rendering of full color images using halftoning techniques. The invention relies upon the application of a non-periodic halftone operation to the least perceptible color separation (e.g., yellow) so as to prevent the formation of periodic structures due to the interaction of the yellow colorant with one of the other colorants (e.g., cyan or magenta).
