I'm asking this question here because at the moment I don't know where else to ask. The question relates to the Reading And Sugar book I'm doing.I'm scanning in book pages of a book printed in 1928. The pages are quite yellow, but readable. A sample is at:http://en.flossmanuals.net/bin/view/ReadingandSugar/ScanningBookPages I'd like to lighten or remove the yellowing from the pages to make the book more attractive. Maybe leave the text alone and replace everything else with white. I tried different things with GIMP without much luck. Any ideas?
Perhaps simply scan in greyscale rather than color?Also, you might be interested in postprocessing with unpaper: http://unpaper.berlios.de/
