I tried scanning a back glass but the thick glass meant the scanner's focus was off. Stitching high quality photos might work better.

Quoted from Aurich:Just make sure you're correcting for any barrel distortion if you're going to go that route. And if that's greek to you maybe not the best method to attempt.
No not greek to me, I have done tons of photo stitching.
Quoted from Aurich:So you know what I'm saying if the OP doesn't have the experience with that. Can give you some wonky results if you're not careful.
I was really wondering how people scan backglasses because most scanners have a very short focus, the scanned object has to be up tight to the scanner. The glass thickness inherently prevents that. The only practical way would seem to be a camera. For anyone with a gigapan mount this would be easy. http://gigapan.com/cms/shop/store
