An interesting paper that talks about this is on: http://foto.chemie.unibas.ch/research/paper1/restor.html The main thing is that each film dye seems to fade differently over time, resulting in a hard to correct color cast. The simplest thing that recovers the color cast is a gamma adjustment that's different for each color. VueScan's "Filter|Restore fading" option does this automatically. Regards, Ed Hamrick P.S. I visited the Assyrian rooms at the British Museum about six months ago. It's facinating that cuniform has been translated, using the Behistun inscriptions. The Rosetta stone is in a room near the Assyrian rooms too. Interesting notes about the Behistun inscriptions are on: http://www.livius.org/be-bm/behistun/behistun01.html http://www.andypryke.com/pub/CuneiformWriting
