Has anyone had any experience with image enhancement software in an
MS-DOS environment?  I am preparing facsimiles of old publications
where the text is often quite faded.  I can usually read the original,
but the quality of photographic reproductions is much worse.

I would like to try scanning the pages and using image enhancement
software to restore some of the lost quality, but I am unaware of any
such software for MS-DOS systems (or any other systems, for that mat-
ter).  PD, shareware, and commercial are all fine.

Please email replies to me at:

I will post a summary if anyone can provide any information.
