Is perfectly straight really that big of a deal? I understand why it needs to be perfectly FLAT since that is hard to fix later, but isn't adjusting the angle to make it straight pretty simple? I understand trying to avoid that step, but getting a scan perfectly straight is not very easy to do and even if it's off by half a degree, it will still need to be adjusted afterwards.
I'm just asking because I try my best to get my scans as straight as possible, but when I crop them I can usually tell that they are off by just a little bit. Do you guys want more effort on my part to get these staight?
It's also worth mentioning that part of the reason why it's difficult to get them straight is because if I line it up with the guid on the scanner, I'll lose part of the scan to the "dead zone." I try to avoid this is a custom made guide that keeps the image at a 90 degree angle and out of the dead zone, but it's still not a perfect system.
