Are you frustrated over the creases on your printed photos? This happens to a lot of people – the treasured souvenir of precious moments marked and lined with damages due primarily by carelessness and improper handling of photos.

Some may say it does not matter much as it is only a crease, or a simple fold that is barely visible. However, even the minutest sign of crease greatly affects the quality of what could have been a perfect souvenir shot; experts in the field of art and photography will tell you that.

To address this photo-crease crisis, HP presents a technique that promises to remove the accursed crease from photo prints. As the initial statement released by HP, no special equipment is necessary except for an ordinary flatbed scanner.

In most scanners, two separate lights are used to artificially capture the color of a photograph. When these lights move independently from each other, two separate images can be captured. Using the software which is currently on the works, an infilling process can be done which will remove pixels inside the scanned crease. These pixels will then be replaced by pixels outside the crease. As a result, a spotless JPEG scan from a creased photo is obtained. No modified hardware and no technical know-how required, HP guarantees.

Using the right tools, you can easily restore your old and damaged photos. Apart from creases and folds, other flaws on the photo such as brightness, contrast, saturation, correct color, remove marks and scratches can also be tended to and automatically edited. Talk about awesome digital art processing.

So, if your digital pictures can be polished and perfected using Photoshop, your printed photos also have their chance of being brought back to quality. All it needs is a little understanding of the printing process, proper handling, and storage of printed materials to be able to keep your photos last a lifetime.
