Just to clarify, having done the obvious thing and found a
LaserJet with PostScript support to try this on, I'm aware
that there's (apparently) no such filtering happening on
this particular printer. That is, a 600dpi bitmapped grey
circle has partial halftone clusters on the edge, just as
does an outline grey circle; I've not checked a more
contentious case (such as whether a grey line running along
the diagonal between halftone cells comes out white).

I'm just wondering whether HP's implementation is standard
(for all I know it's their own), or indeed whether there
* is* a standard behaviour for this.

Any feedback much appreciated.
