Greetings!
For those Kingdoms who send me scans of their packets - please check the
settings on what you are doing. I have started getting a lot of scans in
formats that are HUGE in terms of file size. Specifically tif format is
way more than is needed.
The parameters I have set out that are most compatible with what I do
here are very simple. They are designed to allow for quick scans and
small file size. These are NOT for archival work, just an attempt to
capture the form and doc in a readable format.
Scan at 100 dpi, or closest to that with your machines settings and save
as jpg format ONLY. This provides a common ground, so to speak, for all
the paperwork, and is much easier to transmit, also, since each
individual file is much smaller as a result.
If you are having trouble with these settings, or don't quite understand
what I am talking about, please contact me privately.
Thanks

PS If you are not sending me scans but want to start, tell me so I can
send you the full writeup on labeling conventions and such.
