Another way is to scan at high resolution, then in the software - GIMP etc, reduce the Print Size dpi. It doesn't affect the image, provided you don't reduce it too much of course, but will result in a larger physical image.On Sun, 22 Dec 2013 18:06:06 +0000 Paul Sutton <zleap@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hello Paul,any suggestions, maybe there is a piece of software out there that can do this.Once you've scanned the image, look at "Scale" in the xsane viewer's menus. Or scan at a higher resolution - that often makes the scanned image larger than the original, but without the inherent drawbacks of scaling up a lower resolution image (jaggies). Failing any (or all) of the above, Gimp can do what you want. In fact, you can scan from within Gimp if you have the right plugins installed. Even Gwenview (KDE image viewer) can resize images. No doubt there are plenty of other viewers that can, too. Julian |
