Browsing the forum I found some posts but together they still don't give me all the info I need to know with my level of knowledge so if anyone would be kind enough to help someone less experienced even if it will feel like repeating something for the 10th time I would greatly appreciate that.
Here are the questions:
How to decide on telescopic lens size? As long as the beam fits, or bigger=better (for example causing less abberation)
Concave or convex? Not necessary for me to know why, but I would be interested to know.
Where to position them? Before the cylindrical lenses? After? Relative distances between them and other optical components? (scanner mirrors or cylindrical lenses)
