Image Adjustment
Image Adjustment
After scanning you can adjust the brightness and contrast to compensate for quality problems on the origi-
nal scan.
Go to the View menu and uncheck Image in Color. Return to View > Image Size and
select Actual Size. This will zoom in on the document so that you can see the character
shapes clearly.
Go to the Process Menu > Adjust Image to bring up the adjustment dialog pic-
tured below.
The three controls let you brighten, adjust contrast and remove stray marks or specks. The idea is to adjust
the slider and click on Apply to see the affect that is has on the quality of the text. When satisfied click on
OK to save the changes. These changes apply only to the selected page.
If this needs to be done across a range of pages you may want to consider pre-processing them in an im-
age editor.
