Try and do as much processing as you can in Photoshop. You'll have much
more control and be able to save at various stages. If you choose not to,
never sharpen the image during the scan. That should be the last thing you
do after manipulating in Photoshop. And then it should be "unsharp mask".
But I'm sure you'll be able to read different views on this, and changing
light bulbs, if you monitor the forum long enough. Everyone has their
personal work procedure that works for them. And most are willing to share
that information. That's why this is such a good forum.
