| scanning resolution? I'm new to both retouching and to photoshop cs3 extended. I will be asking a lot of questions! The first, at what resolution should I scan original black and white pictures? Some date back to 1930, but they are in good condition. I have scanned in about 20 pictures at 300, but want to make sure this is the proper setting. TIA j |

| Re: scanning resolution? 300 ppi is a good starting point, it depends on your final output and whether you want to enlarge the photos... |

| Re: scanning resolution? Janie, the Forum has search capability so you may want to STF for "scanning photos". There have been several topics on scanning. |

| Re: scanning resolution? My goal is to take all the pictures and make an album digitally, so the resolution does matter. The pictures for the most part are clear once I open them in CS3. Thanks, I just went searching - looks like 600 is the best Last edited by janie; 03-06-2008 at 12:26 PM. |
