I have a set of scanned images of book pages that I want to clean up. They are the right size, but have black 'shadows' around the edges which I want to remove. I've figured out the steps I need to do: 1. gimp-rect-select to select the whole image 2. gimp-rect-select to subtract the middle part where the text is 3. gimp-edit-fill to fill the selected area with white What I can't figure out from the tutorials I found online is how to make the script act on the current image rather than having to create the image first. The answer is probably obvious to the literate... -- /BP 8^) -- B.Philip Jonsson mailto:melrochX@xxxxxxxxxx (delete X) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Truth, Sir, is a cow which will give [skeptics] no more milk, and so they are gone to milk the bull." -- Sam.
