Setting Preferences
Before you begin scanning, check PowerColor’s preferences to be sure the options
you need will be available.
Preferences are set in the Preferences window (see Figure 2–2). To open this
window, select Preferences from the Edit menu.
The components of the Preferences, General window, are defined as follows:
•
Application: The static fields in this section describe the software revision
number and type of encryption (if any). This area is also used to toggle
between the ColorSync and PowerColor Press by selecting the desired radio
button.
•
PowerColor Photo : This section allows you to set the mode of operation as
well as the type of information to be displayed in the expert tone graph.
• PowerColor Press: This section allows you to set the type of separation tools
to be used with PowerColor Press. Production mode provides an “all-in-one”
color correction window suitable for most general scanning work. In Expert
mode, all of PowerColor’s sophisticated image correction features are avail-
able separately.
• Default Save Directory: Allows navigation to volumes mounted on
workstation or available network or servers.
• Prompt Before Adding to Queue: toggles a prompt before file names are
added to the queue for final scan.
