Re: filmscanners: Vuescan: Incrementing TIFF file names
Joel: Be sure you do not remove the "+" sign after the number. You can replace any part of the information before the # 1 and the + and vueScan automatically increases the number by 1. e.g. Crop0001, Crop0002 etc. The key is don't mess with the +. You can even chang the number Crop21+ and Vuescan will start with 21 and then will add an increment (22 and so on) to each slide with the same title after that number. I hope I did not muddy the waters for you. Gordon Joel Nisson wrote: Is there a way to increment the numbering of TIFF output files from Vuescan.

APS and numbering was Re: filmscanners: Vuescan: Incrementing TIFF file names
Just on the topic of incrementing the numbers, it would be really useful to be able to have a *negative* increment. I never had a need for this until last night when I plugged in the APS adapter for the LS30 (which worked flawlessly BTW). When you load the film, the adapter winds the entire roll out of the reel to check how many frames there are. But if you then tell Vuescan to scan frames 1-25, the adapter has to wind the film back in again. If a negative increment for the filename was available, the scanner could start at the *end* of the roll and scan frames in reverse order, winding the film in as it went. This would reduce the risk of the APS cartridge failing with most of the film still in the scanner, but you'd still end up with the frames numbered correctly. The main reason for this suggestion is APS - apparently the film can come away from the cartridge, and there is a warning to minimise the number of times you wind the film in and out. This is an excellent argument for saving raw scans from APS. It would be really nice if Vuescan could display the number of frames in a given strip of film. At least with the Nikon, the scanner always scans the whole strip to count the number of frames, and Vuescan seems to record this number, but it doesn't display it AFAIK. This number would be great to catch odd numbers of frames in a film strip - especially APS - so a batch scan doesn't miss frames, or fail because too many frames were specified. Nikonscan displays it in the form of the number of frames in the drawer. BTW I'm using Vuescan 7.0. Rob Rob Geraghty [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://wordweb.com
filmscanners: Vuescan: Incrementing TIFF file names
Is there a way to increment the numbering of TIFF output files from Vuescan. Unless I am missing something, they are always saved as crop001.tif (or something similar to that) and if a rescan again, the name is overwritten. I would like to perform several different type of scans and have them saved in different TIFF files without having to rename them after each scan. Thanks. Joel Nisson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: filmscanners: Vuescan: Incrementing TIFF file names
It increments the number each time you do a new scan, whether it's the same image or not. You can chance the starting filename to anything you want, e.g. xy023. The first file will be xy023, the second xy024, etc. Frank Paris [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://albums.photopoint.com/j/AlbumList?u=62684 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Joel Nisson Sent: Monday, March 12, 2001 5:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: filmscanners: Vuescan: Incrementing TIFF file names Is there a way to increment the numbering of TIFF output files from Vuescan.

Re: filmscanners: Vuescan: Incrementing TIFF file names
Just don't forget to put the plus sign after the "xy023" - so you type in "xy023+.tif" Maris - Original Message - From: "Frank Paris" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 12, 2001 8:49 PM Subject: RE: filmscanners: Vuescan: Incrementing TIFF file names | It increments the number each time you do a new scan, whether it's the same | image or not.

Never noticed that. It must be there by default.
