Hi.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>Yes, it is the here today gone tomorrow fear with digital stuff that I'm most
|
|
<BR>
|
|
worried about. I can rephotograph the stuff on conventional film and keep it
|
|
<BR>
|
|
alive that way. I suppose that the muliple copies idea is the only way of doing
|
|
<BR>
|
|
it safely. It was only recently that I thought about the long term issues of
|
|
<BR>
|
|
digital archiving and its problems. I have around a hundred 10 x 8 inch sepia
|
|
<BR>
|
|
copies from the first half of last century and they are very delicate. Sane
|
|
<BR>
|
|
does really well in copying the sepia tone as a colour scan so I'm initially
|
|
<BR>
|
|
going to scan them that way. Has anyone tackled a similar project?
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>Thanks and I hope that this is not too much off topic, Steve.

|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> longer. Get quality prints, not nessicarly something a drug store can

|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> provide. Note that a printout is not the same as a photo, many printers
|
|
</EM><BR>

</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> If you don't mind black and white, then archival paper needs only a little
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> protection. (Face it, you care about your grandpa, but not your great 6
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> times grandpa, so you don't even need the best protection) Just keep the
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> prints from flood, fire, chemicals (A few older photo albums), and light
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> (except when viewing) and you should have a photo for life. I'd make
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> extra copies while I'm at it, but there is no need for re-coping.

</EM><BR>

<EM>> If I were a betting man I'd put money on you wanting to preserve color
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> photographs in color. In that case there is no solution that we trust to

|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> last. At least not without budgets like Bill Gates.
