Video cards
A video card that is sufficient for text may not be good enough
for displaying graphic images, especially in color. If all your
scanned images look coarse on your monitor, you may want to
upgrade your video card. You will need 24-bit color, also called
true color or millions of colors, to make the highest quality
image reproductions.
Monitors
The resolution of your monitor, of course, also affects the
quality of the image you see. Consider a high resolution
monitor if you do precise color work, but first be sure you
have the right video card.
File compression software
Many different programs are available to make image files
smaller for storage or transmission. For example, they can
enable you to store a 3 MB image file on a 1.44 MB floppy disk.
Some compression software can compress images and restore
them with no loss of data or quality; others compress images
more, but the restored file is not exactly the same as the
original. The difference between the original and restored files
is, however, almost unnoticeable.
