I need to make a scan of fine-mesh wire to use as a texture for American screen-doors. Any idea how I can do it? I have the mesh and I've tried a straight scan with white paper behind the wire. Awful. I then tried using the film transparency function, which is basically an illuminated strip on the top of the scanner and a matching strip below where you can fit 3 35mm slides. Results? Horrendous. Over-exposed, unsharp, unrecognisable. Tried it at various rezs and lineart options. Nada. I'd go hunting the net for the tex, but it's for a commercial package, so I really should make it myself. All suggestions gratefully accepted. mac
