| | Posted: | | | | I've heard that placing an acetate in between holographic covers, or putting it in an A4 clear plastic wallet, before scanning gets a better image... That might be wrong though  |

| | Posted: | | | | I'm not sure if a perfectly clear acetate sheet would work, but laminating pouches, available at many office supply store, works really well. Which reminds me that I need to go buy a few pouches  |

Yeah saw that one, it was a great scan. The problem with the Vista Series cover is not so much that it's reflective but that it's very very very very dark. I think I'll try my digital camera as Peter suggested, but I'm not holding out much hope ...... |
