How do I scan a 12x12 scrapbook page to post? I can't figure this out. Help.

Thanks. :oops:

You have to scan half the page at a time and then "stitch" them together. Not sure what software you have....I use Microsoft Picture It! to scan in each half...save each side.....then I open ArcStudio to "stitch" the two sides together. It's kind of pain until you get the hang of it. It can also be done in Paint, but I haven't had as good a luck with that. I have used Paint when I want to display a 2-page layout side by side, but I haven't used it for the "stitching".

I use PhotoShop but it may not be the easiest to use. You basically scan in the two halves and then place them together in either a new document/photo or put the second half with the first. If you let me know what software you want to use, I'll do my best to help you with directions.
