longball53098 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaidDown Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 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) .

ThaidDown Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longball53098 Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chantsurfer Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 If it is stitched properly, you will not be able to see the join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
