Check the orientation and cropping of the thumbnail images. 

 

  The two buttons in the 

Frame

 section of the dialogue box allow you to rotate 

the image in 90° 

increments if it’s orientation is incorrect, and mirror the image 

horizontally if the film has been placeed upside down. 

 

Thumbnails have the check box below them selected by default. If you don’t 
want to scan an image, simply uncheck this box. 

  If some thumbnails are incorrectly cropped, these may have to be scanned 

separately via a full preview. 

Start the scan. 

Only the selected image will be scanned. To scan all images, click on the 

All

 button 

and then start the scan. 

  A warning will appear when scanning at higher resolutions regardless of the 

resulting image size. Ignore this warning and continue. 

What to do while waiting. 

Scanning can take over a minute per slide, with a batch potentially taking up to an 
hour.  After the first image has been scanned you can begin doing additional colour 
correction and editing (Photoshop) or adding metadata to the image via the File Info in 
Adobe Bridge.
