Re: [Gimp-user] making a faded handwritten letter legible

[Dwain Alford <rteest53 gmail com>]

do you have the letter? can you have it re-scanned? can you be there to
manipulate the dpi and contrast? if the answers are no, then i guess
rich404's answer, "Nothing you can do with that (except guess), will have
to suffice.
