The scan will work well even with the plastic cover on. Step 1 - Lay Photo Album page DIRECTLY on the Scanner Scan Photos DIRECTLY from your Photo AlbumĪt this stage, I will assume you have a copy of ScanSpeeder's photo scanning software. if someone asks you to remove photos from a photo album - don't! There is no need to take the risk of photo damage. Even photo albums that have plastic covers on every page.
ScanSpeeder works with all photo albums - any color background too - even black ones. The only scanning software I have found that WILL let you scan photos DIRECTLY from the photo album and will detect each individual photo is ScanSpeeder.
I also permanently damaged some because the sticky background of the album had glued itself to the photos. The problem with removing photos from an album is two-fold: it took me extra time removing the photos and having to put them back. Most scanning software programs currently on the market will also NOT let you scan directly from the photo album they make you remove the photos and place separately on a flatbed. The problem we all have is that the scanning software that comes with your scanner won't detect the individual photos from a photo album it will just scan them as one big blob. To digitize these old photos, you need to scan them. Displaying printed photos in a photo album was very popular.
