Steps for converting a full scan to individual images
For my own reference, obviously. Anybody should be able to manage this, I just want to keep the method around in case I forget.
- Scan at 150dpi. Batch non-color cards together and save as greyscale.
- Load image in Gimp
- Select | By Color...
- Fuzziness Threshold: 24.6
- Pick a big white spot
- Floodfill: White
- Select | None
- For each card:
- If rotation is necessary:
- Select an area with a 25% mat around edges
- Tools | Transform Tools | Transform
- Rotate preview matrix to align with one of the visible borders of card
- Negate sign of rotation angle
- Crop s.t. no border is visible
- Image | Scale Image
- New Width: 200
- New Height s.b. between 230 and 250. If not, rescan.
- Filters | Enhance | Unsharp Mask
- Image | Mode | Greyscale or Indexed
- Save as: [date][description].png
- Undo to full sheet
