Hello,
I have had my first experience using microfilm! My excitement at finding
the marriage record of my great great grandparents in Wissembourg is
indescribable (although written in French and I can't read it!). However, I
printed a copy, and the quality is really dark and bad. Is there a trick to
getting clearer copies? Is it possible to photograph the image somehow? I
ran the copy through my scanner and it is a bit better, but still pretty
bad.

I am an amateur, and am sure that some of you have some great experience and
advice that you may be able to share.
Thank you!
Barbara Eidel
