Anyone have any tips on scanning large flyers? I have a few bigger ones I'd like to put on the site but my scanner is too small.

maybe not the best suggestion but,

if your really careful just chop it up with a knife scan it.
and then paste it together in photoshop...

??

get a bigger scanner or as another option they have scanners that are hand held and you just run it over the material you are scanning...maybe find a link ?>? I think they are around 150$ or something I forget..

what is it you are scanning in exactly ??.....( curious now..heheh)





DO or DO NOT there is no try

dont use a knife! lol. just do piece by piece with your small scanner and then past them together in photoshop. Or use a digital camera and use some sheet or wall as a background.

a photoshop cut and paste is the best bet.
scan the flyer in parts and stitch it together.

I shall try the small sections pasted together. Sounds like work though! It's mostly items for my punk flyer group on Facebook.
