I need *something* to align the images, yes. The scanner isn't replicating the exact position.

Plus I wasn't even thinking that dpi is an exclusive domain of PNG, that would be outright silly. It seems you mix a lot up. > It seems you assume a lot about my level of knowledge. If something is unclear to you, please ask, don't just assume. Assumptions tend to be off the mark, and having to deflect such assumptions tends to get into an antagonistic mood. A cooperative mood is much better at clearing up misunderstandings, and much more fun for both sides. -- 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.
