    1. [VA-NORTHERN-NECK] Tip on researching grants/patents
    2. Edward White
    3. I have been in the midst of researching a number of patents on the Library of Virginia site. After using Print Screen and reprinting, thus losing resolution and going blind, I found a better way. Try Save As, name it and then open. Problem is that they are in a TIFF format and Windows Picture & Fax viewer will not open them. I opened them in my photo program, customized and sharpened and printed them with very good results. Saved a trip to Richmond. You cannot do much with drunken clerk's handwriting unfortunately. Ed White
