Is there anything similar to Adobe Photoshop for > editing the picture? It gives you a preview picture where you can select a rectangle. You can further zoom it (for another preview), and select again, or you can finally scan the image to a disk file. After my recent changes, you can select intensity and contrast, in addition to the scan resolution. The stored file is always in ``raw PPM'' format. Use your favorite image processing tool for postprocessing. xv and xpaint come to mind. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
