It works. Just tried it! Change the source to file. This will reset a lot of options, so change rotation to flip (its on the first tab), set resolution and size to auto/maximum. Then set your color adjustments to none. In the output tab you can select DNG and whatnot. I just ran some old scans

Vuescan has the option to mirror, but I think it only works while scanning. I didn't find any option to open an image in Vuescan after it's been scanned. If I had noticed it while I was scanning, I could have used that mirror option - but given the scanner I'm using, it would have been just

Yeah, there is a way. If it saves you some time I will look at my copy of vuescan at work tomorrow. You can have it run through scan files and apply corrections/changes to them. On Sun, Sep 21, 2014 at 3:43 PM, John sesso...@earthlink.net wrote: Vuescan has the option to mirror, but I think it

Well, I looked and I see a way to read in DNG raw files and process them, but not output DNG files again. I don't see the option to flip them either. G On Sep 21, 2014, at 5:29 PM, Zos Xavius zosxav...@gmail.com wrote: Yeah, there is a way. If it saves you some time I will look at my copy

DNG from scans typically just contains an embedded tiff. You really aren't rendering from raw data like say from a camera. Its not raw data really. DNG is just a container really, much like a few image file formats and many of the various video file formats. What makes DNG kind of useful with

VueScan raw files are stored as TIFF format, by default, with no film correction or gamma processing. They're essentially raw scanner data represented in a TIFF file organization. When you set the option to output as DNG, the data is reorganized into the DNG standard linear-RGB representation.

Can't you just import from a file in vuescan and export to another file? I'm pretty sure you can. You can define files on the hard drive as a source. Vuescan is really amazing scanner program. On Sat, Sep 20, 2014 at 11:29 PM, steve harley p...@paper-ape.com wrote: on 2014-09-19 19:47 John wrote

PhotoShop will let you save them as jpg, tiff, PSD and a number of other formats. Why would you want to save them as DNG once they’ve been rendered? The only advantage I’ve seen with DNG is that I can tweak the files in ACR before fine tuning them in PhotoShop. Paul Adobe ACROn Sep 19, 2014,

I don't want to render them. I may want to render them in the future, but for now, I just want to flip them so that they're the right way round, so that I don't have to worry whether I'll remember it later. If there's no way to keep them as .DNG files, I'll just have to scan them again and
