Photo Stitching (wand scans only)
You can convert collective wand-scanned JPG files into panoramic photos by using the scanner’s
Stitching (STC) mode and PageManager software. This is especially helpful when scanning an
original wider than 8.5”.
To use the image stitching feature effectively, you should scan your originals with the right edge of the
original aligned against the left edge of the Stitch mark on the front of the scanner.
For best stitching, allow at least a 2” (45mm) overlap of edges on the original when scanning
