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. -- David Pilling email: david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx web: http://www.davidpilling.net post: David Pilling P.O. Box 22 Thornton Cleveleys Blackpool. FY5 1LR UK fax: +44(0)870-0520-941
