Can I convert 35mm film to a Wallet Size Picture f


I want to start a part-time business in Portrait photography and need a lot of information on this subject, inparticular, the processing of film and how to convert the images to wallet size pictures on up the line. Can I get a little help regarding this issue? Thanks Troy

  Get the 35mm picture into digital format, either by scanning the 35mm negative with a film scanner or by scanning a print with a flatbed scanner (or having it done). For this purpose, it's not even necessary to size the image to any particular dimension, as long as the present dimensions are somewhere proportional to the dimensions of the wallet size you want. Bring up the image in Photoshop, version 5.5, 6.0 or 7.0, go to File/Automate/Picture Package and you'll see a format for all wallet size on a full sheet of A4 paper.Print out a sheet of wallets on your inkjet printer. Check with Adobe.com and see if Adobe's Elements 2 for $79 can do this as well.
