Pixel Polish

Pixel Polish makes automatic or custom image corrections. See page 11 for memory requirements. Pixel Polish cannot be used with black and white film, 16-bit or 16-bit linear color depth (p. 30). Scanning time increases. The effect of Pixel Polish is based on the prescan image area. If the image is cropped after applying Pixel Polish, click the crop-prescan button (p. 52) to view the results.

Click the Pixel Polish button in the main window to automatically correct the images in the film holder; previous corrections are canceled. The correction is applied to the prescan image.

Pixel Polish remains in effect until canceled; click the Pixel Polish button again. To reapply image corrections made before using Pixel Polish, open the image in the image-correction tab and click the undo button.
