About this webinar

Learn how to correctly digitize your documents and photos, which resolution (dpi) to choose, which file types are the best (.jpg, .tif, etc.), and how to fix, repair, or enhance your digital image collections. Also learn how to organize your digital collections. Geoff has presented two previous webinars earlier this year on this topic. As his way of thanking you for the success of his new book, Digital Imaging Essentials, he will present this webinar – which will combine the best ideas and demonstrations from the earlier classes into one smaller, yet comprehensive webinar. Whether you missed the previous webinars, or want a refresher, we hope to see you online!
