Principle is to use in bitmap editor combination of setup of layers and Gaussian blur. One or two times. And as last step a sharping. It works better if you increase resolution up to 600-1200 dpi first. I attached sample after and original and several screenshots. I'm sorry I don't have English Photoshop but it should be clear any way. m.s.
