How you can use the image
When you have scanned a picture and are
satisfied with the image in the selection area,
there are several ways to use the image.
■
Print the image from the scanning software (see
page
96
).
Printing the image from the scanning software
results in a hardcopy of the image, but does not
save it to the hard disk.
■
Make the image permanent by placing it directly
from the scanning software into another
program. When you save the document you
placed the image in, the image is saved with the
document.
You can place the image directly into another
program using:
•
drag-and-drop (see page
97

•
copy and paste (see page
99

•
TWAIN (see page
