Had the same thing happen - sometimes when scanning lots of images directly into Photoshop. I use Window Washer - every so often I run it, it clears the Temp areas (scratch disk). Can also go into the Temp and manually delete. Restarting Photoshop does the same thing. When not scanning and...

I have Photoshop 7.01 - not CS - don't know the differences, but at File - Automate - Contact Sheet II it allows you to specify the document (not the photo - the paper you're printing on)size. I specify 8.5x11. Then it asks how many columns, rows and the number of objects in each. I also...

Thanks to both. I won't say what I was doing - I was just making it way too difficult!

How do you change the shape of the eraser? Default is a circle. I've tried many ways I won't list here - too many - with no luck. Note - MUST give not antialiased results! Thanks

First, close any "background" programs and work with only Photoshop open. Set your (Edit-Preferences) memory usage as high as you can. Each time you get done with a file, close Photoshop and restart. This will clear the temp files. Go to your Photoshop directory and make sure they're gone...

Made a mistake - of course, I do the editing in Grayscale, then convert to Bitmap at 600 dpi halftone for final printing. So question concerns final image in Bitmap, not Grayscale.

I print 8.5 by 11 black and white line art at 600 dpi halftone screen. I've been scanning originals at 600 dpi. If I need to transform parts of the picture before saving to print, would I get a cleaner image if I scanned the original at a higher resolution, say 1600 dpi, doing the transform...

Thank you for the input. I did scan same drawing at 600 - 1000 1600 dpi and compared at each step - after scaling down, after transformations. It seemed intuitively correct, but I wanted to see the proof - 1000 was definitely better than 600, 1600 a bit better, esp. if no transformations, so...

Thank you. The other part of the question was, are you better off scanning at 600 dpi, doing transformations, then printing at 600 dpi, or will scanning at 1000 dpi or higher, then transforming, then changing resolution to 600 dpi and printing give better results?

I scan black and white line drawings (ink, pencil, charcoal) at 600ppi for archiving and reprint at 600dpi. Recently, friends have asked for part of the drawing to be enlarged, rotated or otherwise changed (transformation comand). This causes the black edges all along the image to take on a...
