Bill- Errors? I'll tell you then...thanks, all.<br /><br />Bill- Errors? I'll tell you then you'll be sorry you asked. I scanned the pages in tiers, grayscale, assembled then sized then converted to bitmap. In many places I decided to replace a tier, but had to convert to bitmap before dropping onto the page since it was already bitmap. If I forgot to convert, the system did it automatically but used 'dither' instead of '50% threshold'. In these cases it was virtually impossible to spot them on the computer screen, I thought if I can't see it maybe it won't matter, but on the printers proofs I found that the blacks had a blotchy look and was able to locate the half dozen that had got away from me. Then I retrieved the original scan of the tier, converted to bitmap 50% threshold and dropped in over the incorrect one. If there are still any I missed when the book comes out.... keep it to yourself.Eddie Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02492020671613766729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752841194995687278.post-36461228406124474412009-08-10T12:55:01.747-05:002009-08-10T12:55:01.747-05:00Happy Birthday, Eddie!
