robertpc77 Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 I am preparing a Powerpoint presentation in which I will be showing a full musical score (lots of horizontal lines). The original scores are being scanned in and sent to me in GIF. The GIFs look fine when they get to me...but when I insert the GIF pic into the Powerpoint slide, it is really missing quite a few of the lines in the score. I was thinking that it might help if I adjusted the Brightness/contrast through Paint.NET. This doesn't really have much effect on it. Any suggestions? Thanks!

BoltBait Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 This is probably happening when the graphic is being scaled down to fit on the slide. Could you scan the scores at a smaller dpi setting?

BoltBait Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Can you scan smaller sections then? Or, can you use a different resampling mode? Like this: Image > Resize Resampling (try each one to see which looks best on your image) Quote Click to play: Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and how about a Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
