Ah,

What a shame that you're right! I did a test scan to see if it was how the programme interpreted the empty space in the image, and lo, it worked properly--so I have to find the offending images.

Can the "fix dpi" option when I start a new project fix it, or do I need to find the images by hand?

Thanks again,

It may or may not flag those pages as needing to be fixed. It's usually easy to spot unusual pixel sizes though. Still, I believe the method I suggested previously would be easier.

'morning,

Too late, re-started, forced ST to "fix" all dpi, and lo, we were in business. Curious, though, because although it was a "scan by hand" using a Brother scanner, I didn't change any of the settings--everything was set to 600 dpi grayscale scanning. Strange that the DPI should get mucked up.

Anyway, thanks again!

This often happens when you post-process scans in 3rd party image editing software.
