Flatbed Scanner/copier Needed

[longball53098]

I am looking for a local shop that has a machine to scan an old photo I have. The photo is rather large. Measures 50.5 cm wide(long) by 25.5 cm high(tall).

I only want to get a good scan/copy and save as a .jpg file for emailing purposes. I do not need to print the photo.

So, anyone know of a shop in Ban Chang area?

I already went to the Kodak Photo express on Suk next to motorcycle shop at the traffic light up to the bars. She said no can scan but she made a photo of the original. I accepted it in case I can not find a scanner. The photo she took is just Ok but not a real good clear copy. I made a scan of the photo at home on my A4 scanner and it came out very good but I cannot scan the whole document.

Any help here?

Thanks

Cannot help with a shop to scan large pics but you could make multiple scans and stitch them together using GIMP, Photoshop or similar.

Also there is the free Microsoft ICE (Image Composite Editor) . More Info here http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/groups/ivm/ice/

There used to be a print shop in Star Plaza that used to do all kinds, had big poster size printers and think they had a big scanner as well, havent been in there for a long time so not sure if even still open

Ah failing memory returns....Do not know if it is the same shop you were thinking of but there still is a place that does large printing (yes it has been there quite a while).

It's located next to 'IT City' in Star Plaza Rayong.

thanks for the input.

The scan I did at home in 3 sections and joining them worked good enough so I don't need the big scan now

Thanks

If it is stitched properly, you will not be able to see the join.
