Anyone know how to "de color" these after you scan them? I would much rather buy golden rod paper and print on that then put in white copy paper and have it printed out as yellow.

I'd like to know as well Tree. The problem I ran into after scanning mine was you can still see the texture in the paper after scanning it, no matter what resolution I set it at. I thought I could get away with just converting it over to grayscale which of course doesn't work so well.

You might try adjusting the contrast and brightness in your graphics program...although from what Gribble said, I'm not sure if that's going to fix everything. Hard to say without having actually seen one, but that's more or less what I did with the old goldenrod AD&D sheets.

I tried that. I could very easil have been doing it wrong, but all I succeeded in doing was changing the yellow to black, which meant I could read the words, then going in the other directions just essesntially bleaches everything out.

Ah, this brings back frustrating memories of me as a kid trying to make copies of the original AD&D character sheets. I thought with the advancement of copiers, this problem was gone.
FYI, how I did it back then was make copies twice. The first copy, after adjusting the brightness/contrast of the copier, showed a little color residue. A second copy of it left less and so on. I did that until I had a clean copy.
