Draw mask
—opens a scan window. Scan one page and draw a mask on the
image and click OK. Capture Software automatically calculates the mask
parameters and enters the value in the Left, Top, Width, and Height fields.
Depending on whether you are setting up the front or rear image, Capture
Software displays the image coming from the front or rear scanner.
To draw a mask:
1. Click on the
Draw
button in the Mask tab.
The Image Mask window appears.
2. Select
Scan
to show the image in which to apply the mask.
3. Using the mouse pointer, draw a rectangle over the area where you want
the mask to be applied.
4. Click
OK
.
NOTES: When drawing a mask in the Mask tab to define the Scan area for a
Series 3000/4000 mid-volume scanner, it is highly recommended that
you set the Overscan parameter in the Filters tab to “0.”
The Draw mask function also works when you scan with the Scanner
1500 flatbed. To ensure that each page scanned is accurately
captured using the defined scan window, place the sample document
face down in the upper left corner of the flatbed platen when defining
the scan window.
When capturing the same portion of the front and rear sides of a
scanned page from the Scanner 1500, the front and rear scan
window must have different mask coordinates. This is due to the
left justification of the document feeder. Therefore, it is highly
recommended that you use the Draw mask function (for both
the front and rear image setups) when defining the front and rear
scan windows.
