Re: Processing a scanned grid

Unfortunately this does not seem to work consistently with different scan qualities. I'm stuck right now, I don't know how to put together something that can consistently deal with varying levels of scanning quality.

Re: Processing a scanned grid

Sure, here's an example: http://stepaheadtech.com/grid-scan.jpg Up until now, I would take this kind of scanned image, and start by using your textcleaner script to clean it up and unrotate it.
