It's a very well laid out process, and does cropping, resizing, sharpening and a couple of other things too. As a noise reduction process it seems to be almost as good as Neat Image (which I use as a plug-in in CS2) - as a stand-alone it has a large viewing window which has various display options - full, crop, before/after etc. All in all, a very well made, effective and easy to use piece of software It's well worth trying the evaluation version but, of course it is a significant disadvantage that it can't be integrated in PS. Douglas I'm thinking of trying the matching option with other print toning profiles - I just have to find some typical selenium, kaloytpe, daguerreotype (or whatever) shots to scan in.
