1. A method for variable data differential gloss font image comprising:
selecting a font character;
sub-sampling the selected font character into a sub-sample result;
scaling the sub-sample result back up to a desired full size result;
selecting a first halftone cell having a first anisotropic structure orientation;
selecting a second halftone cell having a second anisotropic structure orientation; and
in a digital front end, applying the first halftone cell to the desired full size result and applying the second halftone cell to a background field for the desired full size result to produce a variable data differential gloss font image.
