MIXED MESSAGE

This book is certainly worth the price! Jerry Day's photography background really shines through in his explanations. Here are suggestions that are "street smart," practical, and very useful. DISSAPOINTMENT: In the blazing changes of computer technology a three year old publication just does not qualify for an "A". Jerry did a great job, now let him update it.

The One and Only Scanning Book You Need - Until I Write One

Let me make it really simple, if you own an HP Scanner (that's roughly 75% of you), you must get this book. Jerry teaches you everything you need to know to get the very best out of your HP scanner. Of course if you just need a book to help sleep at night I could recommend a few other books on scanning... David Huss, Author of the Official Corel PHOTO-PAINT Guides.

If you use a scanner, you need this book!

Jerry Day's "Color Scanning Handbook: Your Guide to HP Color Scanners" is a must-have resource for those who have purchased *any* brand of scanner. This comprehensive guide not only walks the reader through the basics--resolution, color gamut, color theory, TWAIN specifications, and more--but Jerry's intention is to integrate what you learn with goal-oriented work. What's a scanner good for? What are the optimal settings for scanning for the Web (and web offset)? Jerry's informal tone and energy clearly drive the points home, and make this excellent resource guide more than a handbook. It's darned good technical reading for anyone who wants to understand--and apply--some very well organized information. Gary David Bouton, Author "Inside Adobe Photoshop 4"
