Michael, a couple of questions and a statement...

You said the first chip came out great, but I see two scans of that chip. Therefore, you made two scans that came out good, right?

I will assume the answer is yes. So, did you have to crop either of those scans, or did the software automatically crop out the rest of the scanned image, i.e., the underside of the cover?

I suspect the answer is yes, and then on your 3rd scan (the Belaggio chip) the scanner did not do an auto-crop and is showing the entire scan, i.e., the underside of the cover and the chip.

Some scanners have software that will automatically crop out an individual shape, thereby getting rid of the excess image. In fact, my software can be instructed to scan once and produce individual images of each individual chip on the glass as long as none of the chips are touching!

The setting for this is "document" scanning, vs. "photo" scanning. The idea was intended to allow scanning of several photgraphs at the same time and then working with each one individually.

The point is, look to see if your pre-scan dialogue box allows for such a selection, or is it automatic and if automatice, it may have been fooled buy the Belaggio chip and not the first chip.

Otherwise, the scans look good! But lets see some hot-pinks! vbg
