Hi folks.
Was hoping to get a bit of advice about scanning prints. When it comes to computers I'm not the brightest light on the Christmas tree, so any info would be a help.
Scanner is an Epson 2480.
If I scan at 300 or 600 DPI, then open the TARGET SIZE window. I normally select 768x1024, other sizes go down in scale. Does selecting one of these sizes reduce the DPI ?.
Hope this is not a stupid question, but as I said, when it comes to computers I'm the original dummy.
Dixie.

Hi Dixie Dee
Have you read this thread
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,136704.0.html
and also Cazza's scanning tutorial which are "stickied" to the top of the list of threads on the Photo Restoration board?
There is a mass of information in those, and several others, but if you are still stuck no doubt the experts will help!
kind regards, Arranroots

Thanks folks, I printed out Cazza's scanning tutorial, and with try and absorb it at my leisure. All this technical stuff is a bit much for an old wood-butcher.
Thanks again folks,
Dixie

Hi everyone.
Thanks for the help. I read Cazza's scanning tutorial and went into the links suggested and I think the info is starting to get absorbed into the saw-dust.
Cazza's info is very easy to follow so had no problem with it.
Thanks again everyone,
Dixie
