Features of the ScanSnap
18
z
Scan different size documents together (Automatic page size detection,
Carrier Sheet mixed batch scanning)
Paper size is automatically recognized so that you do not need to change the paper size
setting. The bundled Carrier Sheet allows you to scan documents larger than A4/Letter
size as well as photographs and clippings. Multiple Carrier Sheets can be scanned at
once and together with regular documents in the same batch.
z
Automatically set the resolution by the paper size (Automatic resolution
function)
Documents are scanned at 300 dpi at first, then the image is saved at 300 dpi if the
document length is 148 mm (5.83 in.) or less, and converted to 200 dpi for longer
documents. When linked with a text recognition application (e.g. for scanning business
cards), you can save high resolution image data without having to change the scan
settings.
z
Create searchable PDF files
You can create searchable PDF files by performing automatic text recognition for PDF
files after scanning.
You can also perform text recognition on character strings marked by a highlight pen in
black & white documents, and add them as keywords for the PDF file.
z
E-mail or print a scanned image directly from scanning
You can attach the scanned image to an e-mail without needing any additional
application or print it out instead of using a copy machine.
z
Compatible with both Windows and Mac OS
You can use the ScanSnap in a manner that best suits your office environment in either
Windows or Mac OS (*).
