Does your scanner have a  "descreen" or "derasterize" option? Those scans are pretty dotted and that's supposed to reduce that.

I turned on descreen for those.  Hrm..  Also has an unsharp checkbox, I could try that, too.

Well gang, I've tried and tried, but it looks like my scanning software (with a Canon MP830) just won't produce a good result.  Have tried descreen and unsharp filter, but no luck with either.  The result is slightly better with descreen (same as my covers in the RAW section, but not up to snuff with the other covers I've seen).  You photoshop users may be able to improve them in post, or they can be deleted.
