Re: [APML] scanning from print and from film

Nicola,
Most likely the photo printshop you use will scan the prints onto the
PhotoCd. They usually do not have the Film Scanner to be able to scan film.
The Print scanner causes great loss and is far,far inferior to film being
scanned. It depends on what you plan to do with the pictures
This guy has a website that is very good at explaining in case your
interested:

hope this helps
