Thanks for the quick response. No.. I can't rescan it on another location on the scanner bed. It wasn't my scanner; and I can't get access to this scanner again for about a week

Any ideas on how I can touch it up in paint.net?

Thanks!

[Trying to touch up baby's pic...]

Earlier today I scanned in a photo but it turns out the scanner is faulty and always adds these ugly vertical lines on the right side of the pic.

Just downloaded paint.net for the first time and am trying to use it to touch up the photo. Is there a tool in paint.net I can use to remove these lines (somehow blurring them into the photo possibly??) Also, there are white specks of dust in the pic; is there a way I can remove them?

I've attached the image below; can anyone help?

Thanks!
