As an example, let’s select a portion of the image that would be used to create a
4" x 6" final scan size.
To accomplish this, you will have to set the width and height fields of the sizing
portion of the Scan dialog box, then position the resulting crop rectangle. First, set the
width to 4 inches by entering “4” into the
W
IDTH
value edit box. Note that the units,
in this case inches, for width and height are set by default.

W
IDTH
value edit box – Macintosh.

value edit box – Windows.
Similarly, set the height to 6 inches by entering “6” into the
H
EIGHT
value edit
box.

Note that the size of the crop rectangle seen in the preview image area has
changed to reflect the new dimensions. Do not be concerned about the selected bound-
aries yet. You will adjust the crop rectangle in Step 7.
Step 6. Select the final resolution of the scan
The final resolution determines the amount of detail captured in the scan. The
final resolution setting is especially important because it will affect how your scans will
look when reproduced for print applications. Therefore, the final output resolution (the
resolution at which your scan will be reproduced) will require a certain input scan reso-
lution. This will affect the size of the resulting file. The higher the resolution, the
greater the file size. For example, a 4" x 5" scan at an output scan resolution of 72
