3 Creative Printing Working With Photos Using your own photos in your computer creations is easier to do than you may think. You can get the photos from your hands 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 If using a floppy disk or CD, insert it 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. 38

Working With Photos
Using your own photos in your computer creations is easier to do than you may
think. You can get the photos from your hands 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
If using a floppy disk or CD, insert it 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.
