I am involved in an online game that sometimes has Photoshopped images with embedded clues.

Here is an example. This ISBN barcode was hidden in the dark clouds of one image.

Is there any way to clean this up enough that I can scan it with some Barcode Reader software that I downloaded. So far I can’t get it clear enough so that it is detectable by this software.

Thanks in advance.

I would use Selective Color, adding white and removing red and blue from the purple background. Also add black to the black (or are the neutral) bars.
