Thanks for sharing it, Erica :) it was my pleasure! I got really annoyed by people asking for sooooo much money for photoshop actions when it's actually so easy.

All thanks go to Natascha! Such a simple method and a nice way to have control over the outcome.  ;D

Yay! That was more or less my method, but that last part about the white pixels that sometimes keep being around... I needed that! Thanks!

Finally getting a chance to watch this!  Thanks Natascha.

I have a question......My scanner has resolutions from 50 - 4,800 dpi.  If I scan at the highest setting (4,800 dpi) do you know how big of a print of lettering can be made before the lettering gets pixelated or distorted?

Are there any charts around saying 300 dpi goes up to 8 x 10 size or anything?

Curious if someone wanted to make a giant poster or banner how big they can print.

That's the other thing, I think you'd have to make it a PDF vs a JPG to go big right?

Thank you ~
