I'm hoping some of you can offer advice as to how I might effectively capture select portions of architectural plan sets. I regularly receive requests to bid precast work (columns, balustrades, etc) and need to digitally capture only those parts of the plan sets that concern me. My hope is 1) to maintain vertical/horizontal integrity, and 2) to get reasonable contrast between black line-work and the [typically] white background. Architectural drawings can be as large as 34" x 44".
Once captured, I expect to use Xara Xtreme Pro to highlight, doctor and graphically emphasize the scope of work to be performed.
While there is no doubt that a large format flatbed scanner would be optimal, I'm hoping to get this reasonably done using a 7.2 megapixel digital camera, accessory lighting, and tripod.
