You can duplicate it and set the top layer to mulitply blend mode, this will make it darker...

-&gt; 1) Scan image in at 200 DPI<br />
-&gt; 2) Save as a bitmap<br />
-&gt; 3) Open in &nbsp;PS and if necessary, mode to gray scale (if I scanned in color)<br />
-&gt; 4) Crop to get the siggy as small as possible<br />
-&gt; 5) Do a levels adjustment (if you need help on this, please reply...it's <br />
-&gt; VERY easy)<br />
-&gt; 6) If there are any stray spots here and there, I erase them<br />
<br />
7) Oops...forgot to mention save it as a JPG with full quality...DON'T save for web!<br />
<br />
Cheers!

I have an image of a person's signature that was scanned in on a B/W scanner. &nbsp;When viewing this image in Photoshop the signature is not as crisp as I would like it to be. &nbsp;Are there any simple adjustments I can make so that the black/grey part of the image become more black and the white background stays white? &nbsp;Basically I want to enhance the signature so it is not as grainy when printed.<br />
<br />
The only way I know how to do this is to zoom in to 1600% and adjust it a few pixels at a time but this will take way too long.<br />
<br />
Thanks for any advice you can give.
