CanoScan 9000F Help scanning a translucent document

gamesetal — Tue, 10 Jan 2023 15:48:18 GMT

Hi, I am trying to scan a translucent playing card on a 9000f.

The card has the normal marking but has a hidden, translucent image, which only shows up when held to a light sources.

Does anyone have any trick, tips or techniques that I could use to scan the hidden image?

Maybe I can't then I'll give up but I feel I am missing something.

Thanks in advance. John

Greetings,

Is this some type of hologram or seal? I don't think there is any way to scan this.

Thanks for taking the time to address my enquiry - graphics below of one playing card - then the translucent image underneath it with the aid of a strong light [ hope your not offended by the pic ]
