If so, that is a pretty well known, well used filter for designers, photographers, and others working in PhotoShop. It is more than just a simple 'sharpen' (which is also available in PhotoShop). Yes, it is - you blur the input, then subtract the input from the blur. I don't know the mechanics of Photoshop's "sharpen" filter. ~TJReceived on Tuesday, 30 August 2011 17:22:44 UTC
