Dear All:

I am using Photoshop 7 in PC.
I know once we print any image using CMYK, it is converted to Half-tone. So, when we scan, we can get half-tone dots. so, it is not good to use the same printed scan image to send for CMYK printing. But if we do not have any choice, what techniques we should use during scanning the printed image and what tools in Photoshop to be used to make the printed scanned image more sharp?

Thanks..

– Kal

First thing to do, before you try any Photoshop techniques, is to see if your scanner has a "descreen" function. This makes a BIG difference.

It also helps to scan at twice the resolution you need, then blur the image slightly, and resample it down, then use Unsharp Mask to restore sharpness.
