An unsharp mask algorithm — the industry standard for professional image sharpening.

Does sharpening increase file size?

💡 Subtle sharpening

A low sharpening value (10-30%) is usually all that's needed.

💡 Sharpening for print

Images for print benefit from sharpening because printers soften images slightly.

💡 Avoid over-sharpening

Over-sharpened images show halos around edges — stay subtle.

💡 Sharpen after resizing

Always sharpen images after resizing — resizing softens details that sharpening then recovers.

Image sharpening is essential for photography post-processing, product images, and preparing photos for print or web publication.
