>From the second paragraph:
"The images lack crispness and edge definition. I tend to stay away from USM
sharpening post reduction and go for the PWP Sharpen command
instead, which applies USM a little smarter and in sub-pixel measurements."
What is the "PWP Sharpen command" and where is it to be found ?
