3.08 Controlling file overwrite 

 
If a file already exists inside the computer directory with the 
same name as the name the operator is about to use for a 
new scan, SmartLF will warn the operator. 
 

-

 

If you wish to overwrite the same file at this point click 
SCAN or push ENTER on your keyboard

 

 

-

 

If you wish to alter just part of the filename block the part 
you wish to change with your mouse, re-type and then 
click SCAN or push ENTER on your keyboard 

 

 

3.09 Selecting document sizes 

 

SmartLF Ci has AutoSize, Auto Length (Max width), ISO, ANSI and ARCH paper 
sizes which can be selected from the Paper size scroll box.  
 
NOTE:  The effectiveness of Auto Size can be affected by the type of media loaded 
in SmartLF Ci.  For example transparent or non-square media may fail to auto size 
correctly. 
 
Although SmartLF Ci does not allow custom paper size scanning the product does 
permit any document appearing in the preview window to be cropped before being 
processed further.  This is especially useful for extracting parts of larger drawings 
for emailing to colleagues, other offices or saving to disk.

3.11 Cropping the image 

 
Use SmartLF CROP IMAGE to select an area of the image for scanning to 
file, to the Windows printer or email.  
 
Pressing the CROP IMAGE icon on the Preview toolbar places a green crop 
square onto the currently displayed image.  Use the grips at the corners to 
resize the crop boundaries.  Clicking and holding the mouse button down on 
the centre of the square will move it across the image.
