[Gimp-user] Removing Matte Texture

2010-03-08 Thread Sandi P.
How can I remove the matte texture from photos I've scanned?  I'm using the
'descreening' feature in my scanning software when I scan photos with the
matte finish, but it doesn't do the trick.  I'm still left with mottled
scanned images. How can I remove this texture look in Gimp?  I've tried doing
some Gaussian Blur and then Unsharp Mask, but am just not getting good
results.  What am I doing wrong?  Step by step instructions would be great
cause I'm still pretty new Gimp user.  Please help, thanks!

Could you show us an example of what you get?

[Gimp-user] GIMP won't load LARGE TIF file

2010-03-08 Thread lkraemer
Tobias,
Here are the answers to your questions.

Can you upload somewhere such a file?
An incomplete scanned file, which is a bit larger has
been uploaded here:
http://www.filefactory.com/file/b08c72g/n/Temp00395.Tif

The file size is 3.72 Meg and Pixel size is 21600 x 36000
at 1BPP.
 
Which operating system do you use?
Ubuntu 9.10 32 Bit with all the latest updates  Gnome Desktop.

Which exact Gimp version do you use?
GIMP Ver 2.6.7 included with Ubuntu Install ISO.

Are there any warnings or errors?
No Warnings or errors, but the screen does go dim and GIMP
just hangs, eventually wanting a FORCED Quit.

I have installed Irfanview in WINE 1.0.1.  I have just tried opening this
file in Irfanview 4.23, then saving it
to Temp00395a.Tif, and then I can load this new saved Tif
in Gimp Ver 2.6.7..but it takes forever.

Computer is a Compaq Laptop CQ50-139NR with Core II Duo with 3 Gig RAM and
500 Gig Drive, with Ubuntu on a 127 Gig
Partition.

Thanks.
