Greetings.
What do any of you use when scanning cards to ensure that the card(s) is/are straight on your scanner's surface while also making sure it's far enough away from the edges to capture the entire card? I did some scanning last night and found myself fighting to keep the cards straight, etc. Suggestions? |

I'd rather not have to do the extra step on every scan.

Believe it or not, Legos. lol Just make an L shape. Quite easy to take off the glass without disturbing the card placement.

I have been using Legos for years to help scan graded cards straight in order to save the extra step of straightening images, works great.

Anything with a straight edge. I use poker chip racks.

I used to have the same problem with keeping cards straight on the scanner.
I ended up using a 12” ruler against the right edge of the scanner surface and placing the item to be scanned up against the ruler - then removing the ruler before scanning. Works well for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have always used another Slabbed card (PSA, SGC, whatever) along the bottom edge of my scanner - then set the the slab to be scanned along the top edge of that 1st slab - then simply remove the 1st reference slab (real similar to lego method)
