I've learned from experience to always keep the number with the plus sign, even when not batch scanning. Easier to remove the number if you don't want it then to have to rescan. Of course some people may not be as stupid or forgetful as me. . . -- John Matturri words and images:

I know Kodak did this some years back with an image in Grand Central Station in NYC which was just huge. I believe it was made from a series of 35mm Kodachromes (it was a very long image), but it was just amazing. I also know of a number of exhibits where 35mm frames were used to produce

The markings in the borders of film are exposed during the manufacturing process, and they are pretty consistent when they leave the factory although they would vary based upon how the emulsion batch responds. The problem is that they don't stay that way. Besides mild alterations due to film

On the files tab, be sure to use a number (it can be a name and number or just a number), and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, be sure you have a plus sign after the number and just before the .tif or .jpg It's the plus sign after the number that saves the scans sequentially and prevents accidental

Hi Andrea-- First allocate around 300MB to Photoshop and see if this significantly reduces the amount of disk accesses. The logic here is that Photoshop needs working space (for each image you have open?) of about 3 times the image size, plus it needs space for its code to run, plus any
