For Line Art images, only the
Threshold option is available.
Threshold measures how gray levels
are converted to black and white,
with the value of 128 (middle gray
level) as the determining point of
conversion. Gray levels below the
threshold are converted to black,
while gray levels above the threshold
are converted to white.
