Hi,
can anybody help with folllowing problem:
I used Photoshop6 as an external viewer in Vuescan. The scans have been
opened in PS without problems. Since a few days, maybe since Vuescan 7 or PS
update 6.01 , in PS the new file dialogue opens up after scanning and asks
for the filesize and mode.
Dear Arthur,
I've just experienced yet another photographic archiving
lesson, this time rather a painful one, with a lesson for
all of us about dependence on current technology.
I have thousands of colour slides, taken from approx
1970-1991, and about 7800 of these are stored in Hanimex
Rondex
It's generally advised that sharpening should be the final step on a
file before printing or publication, but Vuescan, like most scanning
software, has a sharpen filter.
Since I always end up doing some work in Photoshop I never use
sharpen filters in scanning software. However, I'm curious:
The first question is if these are true glass negatives (the emulsion is
directly placed on the glass plate) or if they are actually 4 x5"
negatives on a film base that have been sealed between on or two pieces
of glass usually with tape around the edges.
If they are negative film which has been
Make sure you have the correct ASPI driver installed for your SCSI
controller. This has happened to one gentleman on this list I think.
Once he had the ASPI driver installed he scanner works. If you have

using Epson Expression 1600 - scanning BW 8x10 neg (processed in Pyro) -
using color neg setup - Gold 400 - preview looks pretty good, but 24bit scan
is much, much darker -- why?
Also, though proper subdir is set for file output, if I go to Vuescan subdir
to load a profile, my tif output ends
Hi!
This is not really about sharpening in vuescan, but a reflection on
sharpening in general.
1) Sharpening should be done before retouching the image, because sharpening
causes many details to show up which have to be retouched.
2) Scanning itself introduces some unsharpness, I think it
Hi Sam,
I'm still having a problem that Photoshop isn't able to access the Epson
Twain driver for my Epson Perfection 1200S. The Polaroid SS4000 doesn't use
the same twain interface, only it's proprietary software, which could
include Silverfast, Insight, or VueScan.
But I am able to scan
No flames here... But, every book I've read on working with PhotoShop (and I
have more invested in books than I care to think about) states that the
application of sharpening (actually Unsharp Mask in PShop) should be the last
thing you do before printing the image on the inkjet or whatever
Just a couple of quick comments..
1. Cleaning neg's with water
Bear in mind that if you use anything but 'unexposed' distilled water as a
cleaning agent, you are in fact using carbonic acid..!
I used to work in a oceanographic lab, and while checking the pH levels of
