Hello,

While reading through this list's archives I stumbled upon a two year old post 
(https://www.freelists.org/post/argyllcms/Scanner-utility-that-significantly-improves-colorimetric-accuracy
 
<https://www.freelists.org/post/argyllcms/Scanner-utility-that-significantly-improves-colorimetric-accuracy>)
 about a utility for removing the scanner glare for reflective media. Not sure 
if the author is around, but I wonder whether this utility can also be used 
(and whether it is relevant) for transmissive media. While the likely answer to 
both questions is yes, an obvious obstacle is the creation of a calibration 
transparency 
(https://github.com/doug3236/scanner_refl_fix#initially-calibrating-the-scanner ;
<https://github.com/doug3236/scanner_refl_fix#initially-calibrating-the-scanner>),
 which seems doable though.

I wonder if any attempts were made in that direction by anyone.

Cheers,
Nic Nilov.
