Q: How can I create icons of users for the Mail app? I have a scanner connected to another brand of computer. \
\
A: Scan the photo at the highest resolution and save as a TIFF file on the other computer. Transfer the TIFF file to the NeXT. Third-party solutions (e.g. DataViz) are available if you have no means of transferring files. Other third parties (e.g. Abaton) have announced scanners that will connect directly to the NeXT.\

Launch the Icon demo and perform the following steps:\

Move it to the lower left-hand corner if necessary, by using the Lift and Paste tools (the first and third tools in the first row of Palettes->Effects...).\
(2) Some scanners might create an inverted image; if so, use the Invert tool (the third tool in the second row of Palettes->Effects...) to right the image.\
(3) Use Palettes->Effects... to find the scale tool (the second tool in the second row), and scale the image to about 64x64. (You may or may not find it useful to click on Coordinates in the Tools Palette.) \
(4) Use the Preferences... menu button to set the Image Size to exactly 64 x 64 and click OK.\
(5) Save the resulting TIFF files in /LocalLibrary/Images/People (see Mail's Help under "Advanced/Pictures").\
