Based on these two constraints, it is not always possible
to scan the frame right-side-up. If the frame is scanned
backwards or upside-down, software can be used to
correct the image after scanning. Since the resultant
operation is a 90 or 180 degree flip, it is very fast and
causes no image degradation.
Several examples of positioning film in the strip film
holder are shown in Figure 4.12.

Care should be taken not to touch the frame portion of
the film when loading the film into the holder. It may be
desirable to use film handling gloves available at most
photo processing or camera stores.
The window in the strip film holder is slightly smaller
than the typical 35 mm frame. Position the desired frame
so that the holder window properly brackets the frame.
Minor rotations or translations of the film in the holder
can be accomplished by opening the holder and
realigning the strip film.
