Graph Paper Erasure

[vfx]

I have some drawings that are done in pencil on standard blue lined graph paper. After scanning the pages in I have been trying to remove the blue-line grid to get the drawings clean. Anyone have technique for this?


Thank you in advance!

Can you upload an example? It doesn't have to be the whole drawing, as long as it has the blue lines on it, so that I can figure out which technique works best for you.

To upload an image, go to Tinypic.com and upload the image, then copy/paste the complete IMG code provided.

Thabks JLBerry,

Back from holidaze.

Here is a typical example of the problem. These things can't fax or if the pencil is light or tiny becomes unreadable.

Thank you for your interest.

cheers!

This is using color deconvolution filter.

As I said earlier I used color deconvolution filter for details of this see..

You could always try a FFT filter as an example see...

Explain to me why you used words like "color deconvolution filter" that hardly anyone has ever heard of without even providing any link or explanation? Indeed, you needed to fuel your ego.

I also doubt that most people are interested in buying a plug-in each time they have a Photoshop problem... (the trial version is rather limited, 8bit, 250px x 250px max).

So then JL what would you say was the best thing to do, please teach us all on how to do it, let the OP finaly listen to a master on how to fix it, I'm sure you can do that can't you? I mean all you have done so fair is bitch about other helping so please show us all how to do it.

KRF, were you replying to me? You're slow....hehe... you still don't get it now do you?
