Smoothing screen shots.

Those writing software manuals have frequent need to incorporate screen shots. Trouble is, screen shots at 72 or 75 dpi are likely to create moire patterns when reproduced by some POD printers such as LSI. So a tool is needed to blend the dots while retaining legibility.

What is the consensus technique for attacking this problem? Despeckle is the obvious choice, but is it optimal?
