I need *something* to align the images, yes. The scanner isn't replicating the exact position. I tried align_image_stack, but it would refuse to work with images of slightly different sizes. Which I don't really understand, because it's identifying and moving control points, which includes moving some pixels beyond the image boundary. So I'm wondering what it's doing - clipping them? It's not a big deal because the page margins are white space anyway, but I'd like to understand what it's actually doing. Is it considering the image border to be all control points?

TIFF with one of its compression modes may work, too, but I know how to convert TIFF to PNG so it's pretty much a solved problem - but there's that constraint that I probably cannot go above 300 dpi, storage-wise, so this constrains the options a bit. -- A list of frequently asked questions is available at: http://wiki.panotools.org/Hugin_FAQ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
