I have some art I did back in high school that I recently scanned in. They are just pen doodles that I did on regular lined notebook paper. But on some of the pages I drew on both sides of the page, so when I scanned one side the ink from the other side bleeds through. I'd like to remove those portions but keeping the original lined paper look. I tried content-aware fill, healing brush, spot healing brush, and more but nothing seems to work quite right. I seem to have the best luck with the patch tool, but for the parts selected close to ink, the replacement patch gets blue ink blur. It's like Photoshop is trying to guess what should go around those edges but all I want is just the plain selected area. Can someone suggest a decent tool and settings to get rid of the bleeds?

P.S. I'm using CS5

Welcome to the forum. Without seeing the image or scan I would say use a rectangular marquee with little to no feathering and clone into the selection.

hi,
I agree with thehermit.. need to see the image also it gives a opportunity to experiment on what works best or the best workflow
