VistaScan Beginner Window Features
The VistaScan Beginner window appears when you launch VistaScan. The
features of the VistaScan Beginner window let you scan a wide variety of
documents, photos, and graphics. Just click a button.
Scanning an item via the Beginner window consists of just a few steps:
1.
Perform a preview scan of the item to be scanned by clicking on the
Preview
button. The item is quickly scanned at low-resolution, and is
displayed in the Preview window (on the left side of the VistaScan
Beginner window).
2.
Select what you want to do with the image after it is scanned using the
Scan To icons.
3.
Specify what kind of image you are going to scan, and start the final scan
process using the Click To Scan icons.
Performing the Preview Scan
The Preview feature lets you scan an item at low-resolution so you can define
the specific area to be scanned when you scan at higher resolution.
To preview the item you are going to scan:
1.
Place the item you want to scan facedown on the object glass, under the
inverted triangle that appears in the center of the rear ruler.
2.
Click on the
Preview
button on the right side of the Beginner window.
The image is quickly scanned and displayed in the Preview window.
