Making an Overview
Before working with images, the contents of the scanning surface must be
scanned into the Overview window. To do so, proceed as follows:
1. Mount the original(s) on your scanner.
2. Select the Scan Type in the toolbar as follows:
•
Transmissive: color or black-and-white transparencies.
• Transmissive Negative: negative transparencies.
• Reflective: color or black-and-white photographs or prints.
3. Click on the Preview button ( ) in the toolbar or the Preview button
( ) below the blank first image in the Queue Manager.
Your scanner now produces a low-resolution overview scan of the entire
scanning surface.
Note: To stop an overview scan once the desired
portion of the scanning surface has been
scanned: on a Macintosh press
+ . (period), if
using Windows, hit the Escape (ESC) key.
Note: If you are scanning all the images in the
Queue Manager using the same line screen,
sampling, and scale values, set up the Overview
with the desired values. All images subsequent-
ly added to the queue will reflect those changes.
