I wasn't sure if it was all the cards or just some. With time I could scan all of them if needed. I've done about 20 so far, just a few each day. I think I'll upload them on here so they stay put unlike photobucket pictures or broken links.

I have these cards from a tournament I went to a few years past. We love them for our games. Hope this helps!

Re: High Resolution Scanned Heroscape Cards -- Scans Needed

Oh a bump. I guess I can update with what I'm doing according to the OP. I started scanning every card in 600x600 quality. Hope that is good enough quality. I have every card in the game but some are in poor condition so I didn't scan those and hope to get better condition ones to scan.

Anyway I have my cards organized by points and am currently at 120 points. I do a few a day. On this computer I do not have a sample but I have the master version on the first page and basic on the second page and all the cards are in separate files because they are a good size due to the quality.

Once I finish i'll figure out how to organize and post here on the site so there is no problems with broken links. I'll most likely upload and organize via waves but all in due time.

Keep doing what you're doing, but do it better. ~Self

Re: High Resolution Scanned Heroscape Cards -- Scans Needed

I know i put off the C3V compilation again, but if all the images get scanned, I may use my GIMP Script-Fu to combine the files to 3/page compilation at 600 DPI. However someone else can do as well . What needs to be done:
  1. Scan all the cards and Post somewhere as PDF/PNG
  2. Download all the files
  3. Figure out how you are going to Order them 3/page. I recommend separating Uniques, Common, and Uncommon on different pages for people who want to print multiples.
  4. Use the GIMP to place 3 files a 600 DPI page (crop/clean up scanning issues of white spaces if necessarily) and use my Script-Fu. Best also to do the Basic side of the cards using the "flipped" option of my Script-Fu.
  5. Export each page as PNG or HQ-PDF. Don't use GIMP to save as PDF, use a PDF printer, or better yet save as PNG then...
  6. Print/combine each page to one PDF (using Acrobat PRO to combine is best, or any PDF Printer to "print" all the saved pages to one PDF file).
  7. Upload to Heroscapers/Google Docs, Skydrive, etc.

Re: High Resolution Scanned Heroscape Cards -- Scans Needed

Sounds like you have access to some fancy equipment as well. So far the output of my scans are in PDF format with the advanced side on the first page and basic on the second. They are slightly off so double sided printing may not work until I photoshop them into place. I was unaware there was a format for the cards (3 cards per page) so I may need to do some more editing but let me know what would be best for these scans. I only have the original cards nothing C3V or anything otherwise.

Keep doing what you're doing, but do it better. ~Self

Re: High Resolution Scanned Heroscape Cards -- Scans Needed

See the GIMP Script-Fu thread but the idea is after using an equipment to scan and save as PDF (back and front separate pages in PDF) I copy/download the files to a computer and use the GIMP Software and my Script (following instructions in my thread) to combine the cards to 3/page for easy/cheaper printing. it would be a little cumbersome and tedious but we could get it done. Probably best to have multiple combined PDFs in the end to prevent massive file size, and separate Basic and master to separate PDFs (my guess if 75% of people will only print Master side) but make them mirrored so people can print front and back if they want to. We can discuss more ideas later, but teh first step is to scan all cards and upload to a fileshare.

Working on the first step as we speak. I personally am inexperienced in the GIMP program but it sounds very interesting! I only have Acrobat pro and photoshop (although I don't know how to use the latter) at my work computer with no rights to download other type software. To help you the most I can layout the PDF's in the easiest format to reduce the work you would need to do if you are to use the GIMP software after I am done.

Keep doing what you're doing, but do it better. ~Self

Re: High Resolution Scanned Heroscape Cards -- Scans Needed

Anyone have a decent scan of the Retchets? The only version I can find is 600wide and very mushy.
