Before Descreen
Descreen
Descreen allows you to remove moiré patterns in images. A moiré is an undesirable
pattern in printing that results from incorrect screen angles of overprinting halftones.
Moirés usually result when you scan images taken directly from a magazine (instead of
scanning a continuous glossy photographic original or a transparency).
After Descreen
To use Descreen:
1
     Choose the correct Descreen option.
•  Choose 
Newspaper
 if the original image has a coarse dot pattern (like images in a
newspaper).
•  Choose 
Magazine
 for images with a finer dot pattern.
•  Choose 
Art Magazine 
for images with near-photographic quality with a very tight
dot pattern.
2
     Remeber to reset the Descreen option to None after using the feature. Leaving the
Descreen feature on will slow down your future scans, in some instances signifi-
cantly especially if you're scanning a big file.
