8" x 10" transparencies are acceptable for color and grayscale scanning. While 35mm slides may become "grainy" when enlarged, transparencies 2 1/4" size and up will reproduce extremely well in most cases. If possible, specify to your photographer to use 2 1/4" format or 35mm film intended for extreme enlargement. Full Color and Grayscale Scans: Continuous-tone art is most commonly submitted in the form of transparencies, photographs, or negatives taken by a professional photographer. Supplying preprinted artwork such as a magazine page or a printout from a color printer is highly discouraged. "Rescreening" this type of art will result in either a moire pattern and/or a blurry image. Scans for Recreating Artwork: Client supplied artwork is often submitted as black and white "slicks" or printed material such as stationary, decals, promotional pieces, etc. This art is scanned as a "template" with the intention of recreating it in Adobe Illustrator. The finished art can contain one or more colors and varying tones of those colors. While a scanning charge does not usually apply, an art charge to recreate the image may. The complexity of the image as well as the quality of the supplied original will have a direct effect on art charges.

Why would I use a 35" high Cart? Isn''t that too high for a desk height? And what''s the difference between the 35" high and 28" high Cart--which one makes sense for me? The 35" high Carts are designed so that your main worksurface is placed somewhere around 28" (whatever height is comfortable for you), and then the small shelf goes at 35" and holds your monitor. At that height, the monitor is about eye level so that you are looking straight onto it rather than up or down. Another way a 35" high Cart is often used is if you want the large shelf at one height and then want to add extension tubes to make a tall Cart. By beginning with a 35" high Cart, you won''t need to add as much height with extension tubes, which will save you money! The 28" high Carts are most popular if you want one large worksurface and don''t need anything above that point.
