DIRECTIONS
Mode: Photo mode (if photo or document mode is available)
Image format: Ideally, TIFF but PNG or JPEG are also acceptable
Resolution: Ideally 400ppi or 600ppi, especially if you intend to print and enlarge the photo. Minimum at 300ppi.
Image Type: Colour even if it is a black and white photo (select 24-bit RGB colour if available)
Additional adjustments: Do not make any changes, e.g., Brightness, Contrast, etc.
The closer the file is to our indications, the better we can work for an optimal result. That is why it is essential to start with a quality scan. Keep in mind that while you can always reduce the size of an image file, it is difficult to make a bigger image without seriously compromising the quality.
