essentially no, because this is offset printing moiré. that type of printing was usually at 200 LPI. you may have an acceptable results for screen use as follows:

Method 1

1. duplicate the image.
2. image > image size
        a. set the resolution to 200ppi > ok
        b. then, image size again, set the resolution to 300ppi > ok
        c. then 'save for web' setting the image size and quality.

what is happening here is down sampling and up sampling which has the effect of running the pixels together, albeit "making the image softer".

Method 2
1. duplicate the image.
2. make (2) layer via copies. label one for horizontal, one for vertical. 3. select the move tool, then using the arrow keys, move the horiz. layer 1-3px left or right, vert 1-3px up or down.

I'm scanning photos from the year book and, of course, there are visible
dots from the printing process.

Is there any way to convert the photo so the dots won't show?

Thanks.

Harry
