Hi folks,
This might possibly open a can of worms, but anyway, here goes.
I've been playing with a print, about 8 x 12 inches, and scanned it at a
variety
of resolutions. Mostly this was due to my scanner misbehaving horribly, and
swapping parts of the image around, and I tried several scanning resolutions
to find if that would get around the misbehaving.
In the process, I found this.
When I scanned at 66 pixels/inch (25.98 px/cm) I got an image that was
(height = 20.01 cm / 520px / 7.87 in.)
(width = 29.56 cm / 768 px / 11.6 in.) as a pdd file
I presume the jpeg I converted it to is the same.
I adjusted colour and brightness, and did one simple sharpen. I did not re-
size. The image has come out quite sharp with none of the over-sharp
artifacts one sometimes sees, including none of the white halo effect.
When I scanned at 168 px / inch then after adjusting colour, brightness and
contrast, resized and sharpened in that order (I think) I just could not get it
as sharp no matter what method I used, and sharpening artifacts appeared
quite quickly..
