[softwarelist] Re: Halftone scanning

In message <023645484f.Dave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Dave Barnett <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> writes 
A halftone b/w picture that I am trying to scan (DPlngScan 1.24) ends
up with a mottled appearance.  I can clear this from the lighter sky
part but not the main image.  If it is relevant, the picture was
published in a journal in 1939.
ISTR that this was covered here some time ago.  Is there a fix?


DplngScan is not the thing, TWAIN is what does the scanning.
I guess the "superscale" feature in TWAIN is what you're after. See the TWAIN 2 manual. Much depends on which scanner you've got. You may need to set up the optical resolution in the TWAIN driver before using superscale. 

Let us know how you go on.
