Summary

A basic guide to the techniques and skills required to select, set up and use a scanner. Beginning with the basics, readers will learn how to prepare an image for scanning, and learn how to calculate the proper resolution for the scan. The book then moves on to more advanced subjects but all the material is presented in a jargon-free style and even the computer-illiterate will find themselves making great scans in no time at all. Illustrated throughout.
