I'm experimenting with the demo of VueScan (8.0.4) with my Polaroid
SprintScan 35 Plus. OS is Win XP.
I am not very good at learning new tricks, and the Polaroid software
was much simpler than VueScan. What I'm having trouble figuring out is
how to scan my slides at the size/resolution I need. After fiddling
with the settings, I'm getting images larger than I need.
Although I can easily downsize/downsample them in Photoshop, I'd
rather scan as close to the size I need as possible -- I think that
the larger I scan, the fuzzier the image gets, so there's a
disadvantage to scanning larger than I need.
Anyway, I cannot figure out how to enter the settings so I get what I
want. All my scans -- without exception -- need to be high resolution
for traditional offset printing, so I need the images to be 300 dpi at
the finished size.
For example, I frequently need slide scans approximately 6" x 9"
finished size. How would I do that in VueScan?
TIA,
Marlene
