Suppose I have a grayscale image and I want to translate the image into a black and white image (bw-image) in the following way:


white color = no black dots in the bw-image
...in between....
black color = very high black dot density


Is that understandable? Is there a program, preferably open-source, that is able to achieve this task?

Thanks!

If I understand correctly, you want to generate a halftone image like this:


If so, there are a number of applications and plugins that you can use.


It can be done in Photoshop, using either the built in Filter > Pixelate > Color Halftone or through changing the image mode to bitmap and using a halftone screen.
It can be done in illustrator with the color halftone filter or with the Phantasm plugin (paid)
The rasterbator allows you to convert an image to halftone online
GIMP can create halftones using the Newsprint filter
Inkscape can also create haltone effects using the tiled clones function.
