Producing the Negative
1) Select a positive image from a scanned photo or negative, digital camera image or stock digital images.
2) Size the image to the desired printable size in a paint program. I use 5" width so it groups nicely on overhead transparency film.
3) Make a blank image that is the size of an overhead transparency film (8 1/2 by 11 inches). Check the background set to transparency since a white background will become black wasting ink / toner.
4) Copy the image(s) into the new blank picture. You might need to rotate the image to fit. SAVE YOUR IMAGE.
5) Convert the NEW IMAGE to a negative.
6) Increase the resolution of the NEW IMAGE by resizing to the same size but
change the resolution to you printer resolution (600 dpi for laser printers).
SAVE YOUR IMAGE.
NOTE: this can take time and produces a large image.
7) Print out on a laser printer with overhead transparency film.
NOTE: You can make a paper negative by printing the negative on standard paper
then spraying the paper with "Pam" or soaking it in vegetable oil.
8) Separate your negatives.
