Are you sure you have your output parameters set correctly? I am guessing
you might have a mismatch something and it is creating an uneccessarily
huge file. Are you scanning at the original image size at 420 dpi or are
you trying to also upsize it at the same time? Lots of people get
confused about this and can get into problems.
I'm not sure. I think my settings are at 100%
BTW, you probably aren't going to get much more true resolution out of the
file by scanning higher than 300 dpi when you are scanning a printed photo.
A very old original photo probably just doesn't have the inherent
resolution to justify the higher scanning resolution.
Yes, I do realize that no matter how much resolution I throw on it I won't
get
it to look any better than the original. But I want enough resolution to
make subtle touch-ups in PhotoShop or MS-Photo Editor easier. Maybe if I
understood PhotoShop better
this wouldn't be necessary. I've been trying to clean it up in Microsoft's
Photo Editor using the smudge tool. I thought it might be easier if I had a
little more resolution.
Thanks Doug!
