Topaz DeJPEG is the best way to enhance JPEG picture quality by eliminating JPEG artifacts, fuzziness, and image blur. The intuitive but powerful tools in Topaz DeJPEG ensures that each JPEG image looks as good as it can possibly be.

"I just wanted to let you now how much I appreciate Topaz DeJpeg. I bought it yesterday and used it for a client project and it made a world of difference.... Using DeJpeg as the first step saved me a ton of time."

What are JPEG artifacts?

The JPEG file format is very popular because of its small file sizes and decent quality. However, every single JPEG image always have a few problems associated with it:

Artifact example

The most prominent of these problems are displayed in the pink graphic to the left. Notice the mosquito noise around the edges, the image "checkerboarding" in the middle, and the color degradation. Every single JPEG image exhibits these characteristics to some degree.

Topaz DeJPEG specializes in removing these artifacts without removing image detail. In fact, Topaz DeJPEG is the theoretically optimal way to eliminate these compression artifacts.

Notice JPEG compression artifacts like image checkerboarding and mosquito noise.

Topaz DeJPEG is the first of its kind to use optimal algorithms to efficiently remove JPEG compression artifacts while preserving image detail. It provides unparalleled image enhancement features and combines them with powerful artifact recognition capabilities - giving you ultimate control over the quality of your JPEG image.

Topaz DeJPEG v3.0 offers unique new features including rapid processing speeds, noise suppression tools, incredible detail preservation, and multiple color views that work together to make your JPEG images look great.

Topaz DeJPEG Demo


Clarify Original Detail and Preserve Image Integrity

DeJPEG's underlying algorithm examines the entire image and removes all artifacts while preserving detail and enhancing an image's natural qualities.

Topaz DeJPEG is specifically designed to target all aspects of JPEG quality including sharpness, noise, and color integrity. The sophisticated tools in Topaz DeJPEG ensure that any processed JPEG image appear clear, clean, and crisp.

Sharpen Color Edges

DeJPEG works to counteract the unwanted "bleeding" and color information loss that occurs even in high-quality JPEG images as a result of the compression process. Because of the limitations in storage and bandwidth that accompany JPEGs, image color quality is frequently lost. With revolutionary color sharpening and edge restoration tools, Topaz DeJPEG actually reconstructs softened color edges, bringing out previously unseen image details, raising existing ones to their optimal quality, and restoring sharpness to diminished edges.

This is highly useful in many Photoshop tasks like masking, but also makes the image look much cleaner in general.

Topaz DeJPEG combines a well-developed sensitivity to image detail with keen power in artifact reduction to bring clarity, balance, and precision to the JPEG image restoration and enhancement process.

16 Bit Support

Topaz DeJPEG supports both 8-bit and 16-bit RGB color modes.

PSCS4 Compatible

Topaz DeJPEG is fully compatible with the latest Photoshop versions on both Mac and Windows. Topaz DeJPEG is also fully compatible with Windows 64-bit Photoshop CS4.

Smart Filter

Topaz DeJPEG is a smart filter and supports non-destructive editing by using Photoshop smart objects.

Multi-Core Optimized

Topaz DeJPEG is completely optimized for computers with multiple CPUs for faster processing.

Do I Need Topaz DeJPEG?


Topaz DeJPEG is ideal for anyone who works with JPEG images.

- Professional wedding photographers use DeJPEG to ensure their large batch of high-quality JPEGs look as good as if they shot it in RAW.

- Designers who work with web images find DeJPEG invaluable for rescuing otherwise unuseable pieces of stock photography.

- Point and shoot and camera phone users take advantage of DeJPEG's extensive artifact reduction capabilities to enhance the quality of their snapshots.

- Any photographer who makes use of JPEG images find DeJPEG highly useful to restore image integrity otherwise lost by JPEG compression.


JPEG Artifacts vs. Image Noise


JPEG artifacts are different than regular ISO noise because they are caused by different processes involved with generating an image. A noise reduction tool therefore would not be effective at removing JPEG artifacts without heavy loss of detail. On the other hand, while Topaz DeJPEG offers some noise suppression features, they are not as powerful as the specialized functionality available in Topaz DeNoise.

An image that has strong JPEG artifacting will have the best results with Topaz DeJPEG, while an image with regular ISO noise experiences the best results with Topaz DeNoise.
