Res—This is the resolution setting for the scan in dots-per-
inch (dpi). The higher the dpi, the sharper the image. But higher
dpi settings also produce larger files sizes. Usually the higher
resolution settings are used for precision work, such as photographs
or fine artwork. Click the drop-down arrow and choose one of the
resolution settings from the list.
Size—The page size for the image. If you want to use one of those
pre-set sizes, click the drop-down arrow and choose the size from
the list. If you want to create a custom size, click on the picture
window and drag the mouse. A dotted box on the window indicates
the page size, and the two number boxes—with the vertical and
horizontal symbols next to them—show the actual page size in
inches. You can also enter the vertical and horizontal sizes in those
two number boxes.
AutoCrop—Select this option to let the scanner automatically
determine the size of the item being scanned. For example, if
you put a photo in the middle of the glass, the scanner will
automatically determine the size of the photo. When AutoCrop
is selected, the scanner makes two passes—the first pass senses the
item’s size, and the second pass scans the image. This option
overrides the selections for Size.
Adv. Settings—Click this button to see advanced settings for
scanning. See the Help information for details about the advanced
settings.
5. Click the Preview button.
The scanner scans the item and displays a preview using the options
you selected.
6. Review the image to make sure it’s what you want. Readjust the
settings if necessary.
7. (optional) To see a preview again before scanning the final image,
click the Preview button.
Note: For more details about the Scan Manager’s features, choose
PaperPort Help Topics from the Help menu.
