Perfect! Thank you very much.
I always forget about using a scanner for things like this. It works
remarkably well, and even has a reasonable sharpness out to a couple of
inches. My scanner spends most of it's time in the closet, since I
don't really have the desk space to leave it out. One of the few
downsides to living on a boat is lack of space.

space.
