Greetings all:

It is possible to do. I was rather skeptical at first but thought I would
try it. I must admit that worked somewhat better than I expected it to.
Although both Herold and Keith are correct and it just depends on
what compromises you are willing to make. If you have a scanner and a light
box, it may just make sense to use this method until you can justify the
hundreds of dollars it would take to purchase a transparency adapter.
