scanning actual size, hi resolution images
What I actually need to do is insert scanned images at actual size into word docs. When I try inserting these scans from iPhoto into Word-- they are much larger than the original. I have tried changing scale and resolution settings and at one point was able to get the image the right size-- but the resolution was terrible. I really need a hi resolution but actual size. (Just for a little more info, I know it is possible to size the image down in Word- but for what I am doing, I absolutely need the image to be the exact size it really is- and these are not standard size images, so resizing in Word has not been an easy task.)
I have tried everything I can think of with the scanner- and am wondering at this point it if has something to do with the macbook pro screen resolution?? I'm at a loss. Does anyone have any tips?
Thanks so much.
