Ordered: When Ordered is selected, dots are placed in a regular pattern
to approximate the source pixel. A lighter source pixel is mapped to a
pattern containing fewer pixels, while a dense pattern is applied for dark
pixels. This is the default option for color and RTL printers. Ordered
Dither is also automatically applied when a Repro Desk job is imported
into PlotWorks and the “Use Error Diffusion for Gray or Color RTL
