Neither of these operations is possible. You cannot sharpen anything while it is stored in a TIFF or JPEG file; you must open the file, read the image data inside, and load it into an image-editing program such as Photoshop in order to sharpen it. While the image is in Photoshop, it _does not have_ a format; it is not TIFF or JPEG or anything else. When you store the image, it is recorded in a file in TIFF or JPEG format. But you cannot "sharpen an image in TIFF" or "sharpen an image after conversion to JPEG"; neither of these makes any real sense. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
