Dear Gabi, In tpsUtil, there is a function to delete/reorder specimens. Based on position or image name you can select or deselect the specimens you want to include/exclude from the new data file. So, there is no need to digitize them again.
I would also recommend to always work with copies of the original data files, so that you never run into the risk of loosing your work no matter what button you hit.
