Try righting on the image Select Colors Then select Threshold and see if you can adjust out the clutter. Alternatively try Image->Colors->Curves and see if adjustment there will clean it up for you Lastly, try converting the image to indexed, Image->mode->Indexed and set the number of colors to 2 You can keep your scanned image, once you clean it out, save it as an xcf so you can do more work on it, then if you want a png or jpg, just export it, File->Export to that format/file type -- Owen _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
