Hi,

I'm working on restoring a photo that has this large dot pattern (attached).

I've seen it before, but I have no idea what type of process it is.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Sandra :confused:

It's not a process exactly - just that in the Sixties and Seventies many photographs were printed on this kind of textured paper. There are a bunch of threads on RP discussing possible approaches to removing or reducing the texture - try this thread (http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=7328) or this one (http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8106) as good starting points.

Thanks for the info and links to the other threads. These dots are a nasty problem.

Best Regards,

Sandra
