Gimp will do this easily. Only constraints are memory and disk. Use Scale Image from Image menu. Options include width and height (can modify default display from pixels to inches) and you can specify dpi. If you start with 300dpi, no need to change that. Note, however, you should confirm the

William, I believe that you're dealing the "orange" color of the film substrate of the color negative film. A simple "invert" will not invert to a "normal" color positive. That orange color must be dealt with (as I'm sure is obvious to you by now). I believe that this is what you should

P.S. One potential issue -- make sure in the Layers Dock that you have the correct layer selected! Think the first layer is the "base" layer, and the one with the selection your second layer. The Multiply mode must be done to the second layer. Guy On 9/23/21 10:02 AM, David Karr via
