Auto Image Mirror/Flip
The Photo Converter can detect the orientation of a filmstrip
when
the printed numbers on the edge of the filmstrip are in the
same orientation as the image
.
If you feed the filmstrip with the image mirrored or upside-down,
the Photo Converter will automatically adjust the scanned image
during the scan.
The following orientations would result in the same scanned image:
If the numbers and image are
not
in the
same orientation, the auto mirror/flip
function will not rotate the image.
For example, this image is upside-down but the numbers are right-
side up. If fed in this orientation, the image would not be rotated,
resulting in the scanned image remaining upside-down.
Note
: The current “auxiliary” OCR capability has difficulty
distinguishing the direction of some numbers, (i.e.,“6”, “9”). If
the number’s position is near the edge of the film, it can
easily be worn out or damaged, and then it can’t be detected
in the expected position, or meet the required condition
above causing the Auto Mirror/Flip function to be disabled.
