Thanks Aaron & Austin,
This is a thought that crossed my mind too; Having tried it, you are
correct, it will only scan a small width (4.5cm) as does Viewscan
because it uses the same HP scanner driver files. Silverfast does not
work with my HP scanjet. Might have to consider that new scanner. Will
continue to play.........
Best regards
John

One other aggravation you may run into is that very often the
manufacturers' scanning software assumes that if you are using the
transparency adapter, you must be using their custom negative or slide
holder, and will lock itself into scanning only that format.
Also, it may assume that your maximum scanning area is the same as your
scanner's backlight, which is certainly smaller than your light- box,
and not allow you to scan outside that area. You might have to try
Silverfast or Vuescan to scan the entire area.
Best wishes,
Aaron
