I agree with Aaron here. Besides, I prefer to scan at maximum true (optical) resolution and then experiment with interpolation in the image editig software where I can change my mind about it if I don't like how it looks. WHen you do it in the scanner you're stuck with the file that's output. -- Mark Roberts www.robertstech.com - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
