Our Sharpness Editor gives you control over sharpness and focus and is the first and only sharpener that does not create halos or contrours. It has several unique photo sharpening methods that all take sharpness beyond common unsharp mask. You also get anti-aliasing and our unique soft threshold plus controls to target sharpening or blur to specific colors, a brightnesses range, edges only or to be applied as a graduated effect.

Give your photos and graphics a more natural and less digital look Power Retouche Photoshop plug-ins are also for Paint Shop Pro, Corel Draw, Illustrator, Fireworks and other graphic software or photo software for photo editing, retouching and restoration (Mac & Win) see list
