decbrad · 2008-07-10 11:47:29

Hi there, hopefully someone can advise me where I can get an architectural plan scanned in and output onto a CDrom, so that I can open it in photoshop/corel draw at home. Thing is, the plan's quite big! Any ideas of who could do it in the city centre? Thanks in advance Decbrad

What size is it?

If it's like a map, I'd do it like this

You could try contacting Map centers and things like that, but I don't know of a scanner that is huge, drum scanners can be quite big, could do the job for you, you'd need to contact some printing or repro houses.

You could also take a photo of it lying out flat, you'd have to get a direct angle on it, but it could work, or photograph it in sections and stitch back together in photoshop.
