Any suggestions? Andrew, Have you tried 64T (EPY) and Tungsten lights? A simple pair of cheap hot lights should provide even, cast-free illumination. Adjust the angles until you eliminate glare. That's pretty much the standard for copying flat art. The 64T, either Kodak or Fuji, is good stuff. Bill Welch
