What about the same thing - except using smart blur? I have had some good
success with smart blur (which of course tries to preserve the edges). I
generally have to use the low end of the settings, but it can be quite
surprisingly nifty on some images if you take care with settings.

John,
Are you sure it wasn't MTF which is modulation transfer function. MTF
describes the resolution of an imaging system. It is the response of the
system to different spatial frequencies (usually expressed in lines per
millimeter) and is typically presented as a plot of some output parameter

I wouldn't use 700Mb disks for archival as
they are bit like E240 video tapes - the extra storage is provided by pushing
the format to extremes.
I would say however I used to use almost
exclusively 700MB discs in my 10 stack CD player in my previous car. I
experienced no problems over a 2

Just wondering if you have heard anything that makes CD-RW less archival
than CD-R, if one is using it as an internal media (not for supplying to

There seem to be two camps on this matter.
I come from the rewritable camp, simply because there is no way to
recycle those darn CD-R disks.
You should know that the two methods of storage are very different in
their mechanisms. The CD-R disk uses a laser to permanently change a
dye layer
Hi Terry,
I will certainly agree that the Direct CD formatting is problematic,
however, it appears to be regardless of if you use CD-R or CD-RW media,
so that's not a good way to "test" CD-RW media.
I'm going to wait for someone to point to me where CD-RW media has been
shown to be suspect
