Default Best way to Scan

Posted By: Dave

I scanned all my cards at 2x size and 200 dpi - which is 400 dpi at 1x. A typical T206 is about 500 kB, so the whole set is about 1/4 GB, which is nothing on todays hard drives. I found creases I never knew I had.

I find that I'll get dot patterns often on these, and changing the view size will change these a lot. That's due to the pixel size on my screen interacting with the resolution of the scan.

When I post here, I'll open the picture and resize to actual, or a little smaller, and save to an upload spot.

Here's an example of the 2x - it's only a portion of a card due to its size.
