Maybe he is mickysoft trained and hence a little slow ?

If it is so easy to use and works so well, I wonder why
National
Geographic's editors don't know about it...

Dear Friends,
I suggest you to use the software (Freeware) named "autostitch".
It is very easy to use it and you can stitch 2 or more pictures-schematics
etc.
Just Google and download.

Randy,
Although "stitching" sounds really simple, it is hardly so. Many
scanners
are not completely linear, because the area near each end of the
scan is
distorted a little. When you attempt to "cut and paste" two segments
of a
larger original together, you find that you can never get all of the
fine
details to line up at the junction. A perfect example of this
optical
aberration is shown on pages 90-91 of the July 2009 issue of
National
Geographic. A panoramic photo was made up of three images from the
same
camera, taken only seconds apart, but there is obvious misalignment
between
the edges of each image.
My hat is off to you for intending to scan large pages in one shot.
I think
you'll find that it's a heckuva lot cheaper to pay a graphics shop
to scan
large images, than it is to buy (and then learn to use) Adobe
Photoshop. I
do own Photoshop, but I have neither the patience nor the
inclination to
spend a lot of time and energy manipulating segments of schematics
when I
can get a large page scanned in one pass for less than a dollar.

Thanks Eric! I will probably do that with my very large pages as you
say.
In another group someone mentioned that Adobe Photoshop will stitch
together
pdfs so I may try that with some of the 11 x 17s. I wasn’t aware
Photoshop
would do graphics like that.
Thanks again for your reply.

Randy,
Rather than scan large schematics piecemeal, simply take the sheets
to a
commercial graphics shop (some Kinko's may have the 11 by 17
equipment) and
have them scan the document in one piece. My local graphics shop can
handle
huge schematics, so I take all Motorola and GE fold-out sheets
(which are up
to 34 inches wide) and have them scanned directly to PDF and put on
a CD or
thumb drive.

Does anyone know or use a program where I can scan large schematics
a little
at a time and then connect them back in a file like a pdf file? I
can’t
afford a large bed scanner but I have several 11x17s I would like to
scan on
my 8 ½ x 11 scanner.
