Working With Photos

Using your own photos in your computer creations is easier to do than you may
think. You can get photos onto the computer screen in two different ways:
scanning and digital film processing.

Scanning

If you’re using photos that have already been processed, scanning is the easiest
way to get them into a usable format for your computer.

1

Use one of these methods to scan the photos:

If you have one, use your own scanner and its instructions.

Or, you can take the photos to a photo finisher and ask them to scan the
photos for you.

2

Save the files onto a hard disk, floppy disk or CD.

3

Insert the floppy disk or CD into your computer.

4

Open your software program and follow its instructions to import the photos.

Digital Film Processing

This method of developing film places all of your pictures onto a floppy disk or
CD. In addition to printed photos, you’ll receive electronic photos on floppy disk
or CD that you can insert into your computer.

1

Go to your camera store or photo lab and ask for your roll of film to be
processed digitally (that is, placed onto a floppy disk or CD).

2

When you receive the disk, insert the floppy disk or CD into your computer.

3

Open your software program and follow its instructions to import the photos.

Printing Photos

The process for printing photos is similar to printing any other color images. The
main differences are in paper and print quality selections.
