First of all: Mod, please move this discussion as I didn't know where to put it.
Thx!

Hi everybody,
since I started scanning my mags and came across some difficulties of improving the result while keeping the quality good over a whole magazine I wanted to ask you about your tricks to do so.
Ok, here's how I scan:
1) I scan from The Gimp using a Canon Canoscan ScanLide 90
2) I pin down the master using heavy books with a hard cover book as the lowest layer to straighten out the pages -> I've got to keep the scanner open
3) That's why I avoid light within the direct area of the scanner
4) I make a couple of test scans per mag using 400dpi to find out what color correction I get the best results with
-> And 4 bears the problem: When I preview e.g. page 1 the color optimizations will almost never lead to a good result on e.g. page 6 because the color bias changes with the developing of the series.
- How do you scan to achieve the best results?
- If I scanned without color correction, are there any cool tools to batch correct brightness/contrast/satuation
Looking forward to your replies
amicalement, hartwig
