This is my third attempt to reply to you, thanks to the traditional weekend
foul-up at Easynews. This time they ate all text posts (which may appear
later--or not) for most of the day:
Wow. Does the cover have some sort of metallic or specular finish? If so,
those are virtually unscannable and can be reproduced with only some limited
success photographically using polarized light.
I had hoped it might be possible to isolate the crest so that I could at
least produce a front cover, but no luck. I was just going to drop the crest
on a standard Archiv cover & replace the text, but...
Maybe Amahl will drop in with some ideas?
Sorry Snowy :^(
