The Project

 

Having recently purchased a Taxiphote viewer, I was soon thinking how I might view my own slides in this wonderful machine.  Having tried to adapt my Realist format slides for the viewer, it occurred to me that it would be more interesting to try producing slides in the format intended for this viewer, In my case 107mm x 44mm.  This way, I could view images taken with a digital camera, cropped to suit.

I was now faced with finding the most suitable media and printer combination for making the slides and a means of mounting these to match the handling properties of the original glass slides.  In doing this, I considered the following:

 

  Media - Inkjet printable films, both transparent and opaque.

  Printer - Inkjet print resolution and printing profile.

  Software - Image alignment, manipulation, printing template.

  Mounting - Glass, card and plastic alternatives.
