+.UN description
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This program is part of
+.BR "Netpbm" (1)\c
+\&.
+.PP
+\fBpgmdeshadow\fP removes gray shadows from an image. This is
+useful for an image containing text, such as a scanned book pages,
+where a shadow typically appears near the book crease or near one side
+of the image. \fBpgmdeshadow\fP recognizes a gray shadow as an area
+of smoothly changing color, starting from the outer edges of the
+image. The program uses a simple image reconstruction algorithm to
+determine the local shadow gray level, then divides each pixel's gray
+level by the local shadow gray level.
+.PP
+The algorithm is the "fast hybrid grayscale reruction"
+algorithm from Luc Vincent, "Morphological Grayscale Reruction in
+Image Analysis: Applications and Efficient Algorithms.
