About this title

Synopsis:

This text on scanning and manipulating images introduces readers to the fac ts they need to know. Provided is a series of quick examples to help them get to grips with the technology. This book an addition to the Pearson Education "Simple Guide" series.

Review:

Like all the titles in this series, A Simple Guide to WinZip & PKZip is a handy, pocket-sized guide packed with almost as much information as door-stopping tomes on the same subject. Originally published and produced in design-conscious France, these aesthetically pleasing guides have been translated into functional if sometimes puzzling English. (What, exactly, does "parameterizing" mean?)

A Simple Guide to Scanning & Manipulating Images includes information on how to choose the best equipment, send images securely by e-mail, manipulate and retouch images, install the necessary hardware and software and the step-by-step process of scanning images. The coverage of the installation process is almost overly comprehensive, but the section on graphical manipulation packages is clear and concise, like most of this straightforward and informative guide to image processing. --JoshSmith
