Hi everyone, I'm a newbie needing some help.
I am using a photo film scanner to scan images of postage stamps into CS5 and then using the channel splitter to produce CMYK images. On many older stamps the plate number from which the stamp was printed is engraved into the design of the stamp. In many instances a black cancellation mark obliterates the plate number. Is there anyway I can manipulate the CMYK layers to lift the black cancellation mark from the stamp image so that I can identify the stamp plate number?
