Improving scanned images

You can remove lines from scanned or interlaced video images. These lines can be filled with copies of adjacent lines of pixels, or with colors derived from surrounding pixels. You can also remove moiré or noise. Moiré is the wave pattern produced when halftone screens of two different frequencies are superimposed on the same image. Noise is the speckled effect produced by scanning or video-capturing.

You can remove lines from a scanned image using the Deinterlace filter.
