Press Release: SilverFast with several new features and availability for
Topaz Scanners
Sept. 7, 2005--Building on its advanced line of
award-winning scanning/imaging software LaserSoft Imaging is releasing
SilverFast with new features. These exciting additions are designed to meet
today's most demanding scanning and imaging requirements, while delivering a
level of seamless integration and reliability that will continue to provide even
more powerful editing tools to users. The company has also released scan
software for Heidelberg Topaz scanners.
Automatic De-screening allows automatic scanning of
preprinted materials without the trouble
of
measuring the original LPI (lines per inch),
thus eliminating noticeable moire patterns. Saves time
when
original digital art may be lost and only
the printed piece remains for
reproduction.
Noise Reduction Multi-Sampling
with new patented Auto Alignment eliminates noise in shadow
areas
of scans bringing your scanner to a
higher quality level by extending the usable dynamic range
capturing
more detail and making scans sharper
and clearer in shadows.
PrinTao is the new
professional printing function which allows page layout functionality for images
and
text. Position images anywhere on the page
- crop and resize while viewing an optimal resolution
gauge
which shows if the photo is still in a
usable range for print or web.

Here is what some of our customers
are saying:
“The new multisampling
feature in SilverFast Ai Studio appears in my testing to be a real breakthrough.
It would be
hard to surpass the noise reduction
of SF Ai Studio.”
- John
Hennessey-
“SilverFast has been an
"absolute must" with ALL my photo work for magazines and clients! I cannot think
of scanning
without it. ... and I believe that
when you have software such as SilverFast, you can scan on anything and get
great
scans. As added proof, I've enclosed jpeg
images from the actual "tearsheets" of my work for Harper's Baza ar,
Marie
Claire Magazine, Britney Spears/Pepsi,
and Chicago Magazine. ALL of these photographs were scanned using
Silverfast
software”! - David Anthony -
