Image Smoothing

Image Smoothing

Image Smoothing blends adjacent colors in low-resolution images for smoother color
transitions. For example, use Image Smoothing to improve the appearance of a 72-dpi
image downloaded from the World Wide Web. Image Smoothing is not recommended for
300-dpi or higher images.
