Set the color information to 24-bit color.
♦
Set the resolution (or dpi) to 125 dpi to output at the same size as the
original. To output at larger sizes, multiply 125 dpi times the scale factor of
the output. For example, to output at 4 times the size of the original, set the
scanner resolution to 500 dpi (125 x 4).

Preview scan, crop as needed, and final scan the image or photograph in your scanner
program. Save as a BMP, TIF, JPG, or other common raster format.

Import the image into Composer (File > Import). If it asks for a Source Color Space
Profile, click OK to use the default.

box.

If printing black and white artwork, click Spot color as the Color Type and
choose a spot color for the output color.

If printing as a full color photo, click Process as the Color Type and choose
GerberTone Photo STC as the Halftone type. Enter an LPI value of 70.
Note: You can also assign and print a full color image as a single Spot color. Simply click Spot
color instead of Process color in the Image Fill dialog box and choose the desired spot color.

24 and the Resolution to High, but your PLT file size may be very large.
