What it does

Removes all halftone phases from a PDF document.

A halftone phase is a shift in the alignment of halftone and pattern cells in device space, to compensate for window system operations that involve scrolling. It is no longer used, but may still be found in documents containing artwork from older source applications.

Note: It may be interesting to remove halftone phases, because halftone curves, when defined, overrule general transfer curves.
