I have to scan a bunch of landscape photos out of an antique photo book (circa 1925) and there is a fine screen (perhaps gravure? ) on the photos. The results of my scans are to be reproduced on a calendar. I’d like to find the best way to deal with the screen.
My flatbed is something of an antique itself (Microtek Scanmaker III with Scanwizard). The software does have a descreen filter (either one of several presets or a custom setting). However the descreen filter "softens" or "blurs" the image which is objectionable on these crisp, large format, sharp photos.
Any suggestions on how I might get the very best results ?
thanks
