Sharpening options
Amount
Specifies the amount of light added to or removed from each edge. Higher values produce darker edges.
Radius Specifies the number of pixels to adjust around each edge. Higher values increase the number of
sharpened pixels.
Threshold Specifies how different the lightness values of two adjacent pixels must be before they are sharpened.
Higher values increase the required difference. It is recommended that you set the threshold so that it
enhances edges while keeping background noise to a minimum.
Threshold

not been sharpened.
