Summary: Great information! I love this book!
Comment: I wish I'd had this book when I started using my scanner. It clearly explains a lot of confusing terms and helped me correct a lot of the things I was doing wrong. The chapter that explained resolution was worth the price I paid all by itself. I disagree with the reviewer who says the book is a rehash of the material supplied with scanners. Half of this book consists of projects to apply to your scanning, something that I wish more vendors *would* provide with their products. The other half is detailed information about scanning that I wish had been supplied with my scanner. If I want a book on image editing with Photoshop, I'll buy one. I wanted a book on how scanners work and how to use them, and that's what the authors have done a good job in writing this handbook. Thanks!

Summary: Great book!
Comment: It's great to finally have an authoritative book available that covers scanners so completely. I liked that the book provided information for users of any brand scanner, rather than just Hewlett Packard equipment. Scanner models change so frequently anyway that advice on how to select and use the best one for your needs is more valuable than a feature-by-feature comparison of specific scanners. This book has just what I needed, without being padded out with how-tos you can find in any Photoshop book. The projects were great, too. I'm on my third scanner, and was delighted to see suggestions for interesting things to do with it. Good job, authors!

Summary: Still a great book on scanning!
Comment: I'm always amazed when people buy a great book on scanning, like this one, then complain because it doesn't have detailed information on their particular scanner or lots of chapters telling them how to use Photoshop. If you want a Photoshop book, buy a Photoshop book! There are hundreds of them. If you want to know how to use the controls of your scanner, read the manual!
This book is the best general guide to scanning that I've seen, with lots of information on how scanners work, how to choose the best resolution, and how to get the best scans, and other essential information. Then, the last half of the book shows you lots of fun things you can do with a scanner, with a nice collection of easy projects. I recommend this book for beginners who want to understand scanning, and more advanced users who want a little more depth of coverage and a resource of ideas and applications. Good job, authors!
