Descreen 4.0 plug-in for Adobe^® Photoshop^®

This plug-in filter is used for descreening images that have been scanned from a previously printed source (such as a newspaper, magazine, book, postcard, etc). Descreening prevents moiré patterns and consists of two operations:

• Screen removing.

• Reducing a halftone moiré pattern.

The plug-in employs the fast Fourier transform. As a result its quality is superior to that of most scanners' descreen software. The chief advantage of the Descreen plug-in is a minimum loss of sharpness during descreening. There is no need to scan an image at different angles and to resort to other time-consuming tricks. With the Descreen plug-in you get better results and spend less time. This plug-in is effective for descreening scanned films also.
