Inkwell

I draw on 11x17 Strathmore 500 bristol and my scanner is letter size. Anyone have a tabloid size scanner they'd recommend that doesn't cost $1000?

Scan in two halves and stitch them in Photoshop with the layer on Difference to line it up. It's what everyone does.

My old Epson died doing exactly that, 200 pages of two-half scans. RIP.

Photomerge in CS2 can stitch them automatically, if your halves overlap by an inch or so.

Photomerge it is. Thanks Sketchwerk.

Or draw on 10x15 and save yourself the trouble. That's what I switched to.
