		The Intellisharpen II plug-in is a new sharpening technology specifically designed to accommodate all digital files including scanned film. This plug-in is compatible with JPEG files straight from the camera or TIFF/JPEG files converted from RAW files (compatible with all digital camera files). Although Intellisharpen II's interface appears simple and intuitive, complexity makes this plugin very smart. It provides haloless sharpening, edgesharpening, luminance sharpening, mode sharpening and more with just the press of a button. With this plug-in you can choose from low or high ISO settings. Other options allow you to sharpen fine detail. Photographers can choose from 100 Intellisharpen intensity levels and 100 sharpen fine detail levels. You can even reduce color noise from high ISO files. Another feature unique to Intellisharpen II is that you can save and load your own Intellisharpen settings. In addition you have the ability to preview settings and tweak intensity results for maximum control over your work. Settings: Intellisharpen II allows photographers to save and load their own custom settings. You will be able to create as many Intellisharpen settings as desired to ease your workflow. Image Type options: The Intellisharpen II plug-in works with most common file extensions including 8-bit TIFF and JPEG files. Under Photoshop CS, it will work with both 8-bit and 16-bit files. Under "Image Type", you will be able to select from "Low ISO File" or "High ISO File". Low ISO File: This option should be used with low noise files. High ISO File: This option should be used with "grainy" files. It also works best with portrait work. ("Sharpen fine detail" is not available with this option). Intensities: Intellisharpen level: Intellisharpen II offers 100 intensity levels. (0-100) 0 = No Intellisharpen effect 100 = Maximum Intellisharpen effect Sharpen fine detail level: This setting can be used with any Intensity level and will sharpen very fine detail in your images. However, it will make the plug-in run slower (especially with 16-bit files), but is recommended when maximum sharpening is desired. It works great with landscape images but it's disabled when using "High ISO" under "Image type". The default setting is 50, but you can move the Sharpen fine detail level slider from 0-100. 0 = No Sharpen Fine detail effect 100 = Maximum Shapen Fine detail effect Halo Settings: The default halo setting is "Normal Halo" and it's the best compromise between detail sharpening and halo size. Under "Normal Halo", the plug-in will already provide minimal halo around high contrast areas. However, if you would like to tweak this setting and sacrifice some sharpening for an even smaller or non-existent halo, select "Low Halo" or even the 0% halo option. Intensity Tweak slider: The Intensity tweak slider is a powerful and flexible option included with this plug-in. You may choose from 100 to 0 within the selected intensity level. The intensity you choose will bring you closer to the desired effect that works best with your files. For example, when clicking on the Apply button to preview Intellisharpen level 40, you will be able to move the Intensity Tweak slider from 100 down to 50. By doing that, half of the level 40 sharpening effect will be applied and shown on your image. A complete list of features and step-by-step instructions on how to use and take full advantage of the Intellisharpen II features are presented in the User Manual bundled with this plug-in.
