Changing the Image Mode
VistaScan can scan a wide variety of image types.
True Color, RGB -
Scans a full color photo or document. The RGB indicates
the colors of Red, Green and Blue. This setting creates larger files than the
B/W Photo setting.
True Color 42-bit RGB -
Scans a full-color photo or document using 42-bits
of information to define each pixel. The RGB indicates the colors of Red,
Green and Blue. This setting creates larger file sizes than the True Color RGB
setting.
True Color, CMYK -
Converts RGB (video) color data into CMYK (printed)
color data using a special color transformation process. When scanning is
completed the CMYK image is ready for printing on a CMYK color printer.
Note:
Most ink jet printers use RGB rather than CMYK printing.
256 Colors
- Scans color images using 256 colors. The 256 color images take
up less memory and hard disk space than the True Color RGB option.
Web Color
- Scans an image at the appropriate resolution for display on the
monitor.
