If your scanner features an infrared light source and you'd like to get the respective data as a surplus alpha channel to use in your own dust and scratch removal techniques in Photoshop or elsewhere simply select '64 Bit HDRi' when scanning color films. All you need to do is scan your slides and negatives in the mode intended for positive film and select '16 Bit HDR' for grayscale scans and '48 Bit HDR' for color scans. If you don't intend to use the dust and scratch removal features SRD or iSRD - for example because your scanner does not support iSRD in the first place or because you are scanning black and white negatives - the workflow to create linear scans remains similar to what applied to previous versions of SilverFast.
