Claim One:
1. A method for resolution conversion for re-sampling anti-aliased images from an image source in order to decrease bandwidth costs associated with anti-aliased line art and associated with interpolating said images to a desired resolution, comprising the steps of: receiving said image comprised of bitmap data including at least a plurality of gray-scale pixel tiles that define said image; receiving said image data at a first resolution; extracting pixel tile information of the received image wherein the pixel tile information is at a second resolution; using loose gray scale template matching on each of said pixel tile information with at least one of a plurality of templates so as to generate pixel-wise looseness intervals values there between; and outputting at least a portion of said enhanced pixel tile information wherein the enhanced pixel tile information is formed by a matching of a template with pixel-wise looseness values.
