Pixel Polish – Correcting images automatically

Pixel Polish makes automatic image corrections or custom corrections using straightforward para- meters displayed in the window. Once the Pixel Polish button is pressed, corrections are immedi- ately applied to all the frames in the holder. Image corrections performed prior to the use of the Pixel Polish function are all reset for all images in the holder. Scanning time increases with the use of Pixel Polish. Pixel Polish cannot be used with black and white film, 16-bit or 16-bit linear color depth (p. 45).

With Macintosh operating systems, to use Pixel Polish when the utility is launched through Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, the largest unused block of memory in the system must be more than 128MB. To check and redistribute the system memory allocation, see page 87.
