I have worked as a professional computer graphics artist, and I do not know of any standalone program that will give you an effect similar to the WSJ portraits. If you have Adobe Photoshop, I suggest that you use a filter called "Cutline": "Cutline Filter is a new multiplatform, stylized screening and woodcut effect as an Adobe Photoshop-compatible Plug-in. The development of the Cutline Filter was inspired by customer's requests to develop products that create an engraved effect made popular by the Wall Street Journal and Barnes & Noble. After studying classic engravings and woodcuts, a unique line/dot combination screen was developed for the Cutline Filter. This screen replaces the grey tones in a photo or an illustration with black and white lines which may be cross hatched in the shadow areas as the lines become thicker or subtly break up into dots in the highlight areas as the lines become thinner. The result is a digital-engraving effect that emulates the classic old-world engraving techniques." http://www.thepowerxchange.com/cdq_967_prd1.html |

If I'm not mistaken, you don't add any effects. It just prints that way. If you want it to look like that without printing, then use Adobe Photoshop. |
