Mark Saltveit<a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@histodons</a> OK, clearly there is interest in trying to rebuild something like RetroReveal. What I need from you all is some idea in how you used it with manuscripts (where were not the primary use.) Especially re: color spaces. You know how RR had those different filters, like RGBW, YQ1Q2, YUV_Y, LSHLab, etc.? Which did you use with MSS, and did you ever customize a color space? Post here or email marksaltveit at gmail.

Mark SaltveitSpecifically, the software is ImageJ, created for the US National Institutes of Health, and the Color Transformer plugin by Maria E. Barilla. She has since upgraded that to Color Transormer 2, presumably a better choice.RetroReveal was mostly used by stamp collectors to work with cancellation stamps; there might be ways to do this better suited to medieval scribes' ink and parchment. <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/histodons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#histodons</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/palaeography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#palaeography</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/codicology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#codicology</a>

Mark SaltveitSay, <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/histodons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#histodons</a>, is anyone familiar with RetroReveal (RIP), and in particular has anyone tried to recreate it from the underlying open source software? I'm looking at doing that, but I don't need to reinvent any wheels and am happy to compare notes. <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@histodons</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/RetroReveal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RetroReveal</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/palaeography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#palaeography</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/codicology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#codicology</a> If you don't know this tool, it uses image processing techniques to produce pseudo-multispectral images from existing photos. Very useful for reading faded or damaged manuscripts.
