ozark Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I scanned several documents ( black coloured text on a slightly grey background ) . I want to whiten the background , tried it with the recolor tool, but that doesn't work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Who can help me with this ?

Mike Ryan Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Hmm... you may want to fiddle around with the Brightness/ Contrast, mainley focusing on the Contrast command. This should break apart that grey into white while maintaining the darkness of the black. BTW, could you post an example pic so that we can try to aid you a bit more?

david.atwell Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 The best way would be to mess with the Adjustments > Brightness/Contrast settings until you get a color you like. If it's a black and white image, you can use Adjustments > Black & White first to make your job a little bit easier. Hope this helps!
