Micro-graphs acquired using optical or electron microscopes reveal information on a local scale. When a sample is not homogeneous at the scale of the image, it may be necessary to view the sample at a magnification lower than that available by the instrument. Montages of micro-graphs can be constructed through the following steps: acquisition of individual images, stitching individual images into a single image (a montage), and producing the final exhibit(s). Performing these steps has traditionally required careful stage and illumination control during acquisition, dodging during printing, and hours with scissors and glue-pot during paste-up. Because this procedure is labor intensive, the creation of montages was limited to only the most important or critical situations. Digital microscopy, image processing software, and Web-enabled multi-media applications have reduced the barriers for creation of montages and provided for new display modes, thereby stimulating a revival of the use of montages as an enhanced presentation mode for technical data.
