    Thanks Ken. I was able to finally locate the action that I had created from another sharpen tutorial you gave using High Pass and installed it. I will also record this one for Halo Free. Thanks again!!

    Hi DBeck, I don't have any knowledge of the action you describe, but if you record these steps as an action, they give a halo-free sharpen:

    - Smart sharpen

    - To sharpen - Smart sharpen
    Ctrl+J
    Select> All> Edit> Copy
    Channels> New channel (alpha 1)> Edit> paste
    Filter> Stylize> Find edges
    Ctrl+L move sliders for clean edges
    Filters> Blur Gaussian blur1.5 pixels
    Select> Load selection-Check “invert” click “ok”
    Select RGB channel
    View> Show> “selection edges” uncheck
    Filter> Sharpen> Unsharp mask- Amount 500
    Radius 0.2
    Threshold 0
    Select> deselect> dump alpha channel
    Blend mode “luminosity”
    Ctrl+shift+E

    You can also sharpen with "custom" in photoshop


    Regards, Ken
