I tried this, and it really does work better than simply downsampling in one bit hit then sharpening. Thanks Anthony!

If you are downsampling, downsample in steps of 2x (half, half, etc., until you reach your final size) and unsharp mask with these parameters after each step (except the last, if it is substantially less than 2x). Alternately, you can reset the parameters for the unsharp mask to match the total downsampling ratio (radius equal to just slightly less than the total number of pixels lost), but I don't have much experience with that method. Note that you may have to reduce these values for very small image sizes, and increase them somewhat for very large sizes, depending on image detail. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
