Tactile Alignment - Grooves
The base includes two grooves (engraved horizontal lines). The rear one is for
positioning the long edge of an A3 (11 x 17) size page up against. The front one is
for positioning the long edge of an A4 (Letter) size page.
When aligning your documents on the A3 (11 x 17) groove, the left side of the
page should be overhanging the base by 9cm (3.5 inches).
When aligning your documents on the A4 (Letter) groove, the left side of the page
should be overhanging the base plate by 2cm (0.75 inches).

Visual Alignment
When capture has been initialised, the full area that will be photographed is
visible on screen. Depending on the aspect ratio of your screen, black bars may
appear on the left and right sides. As long as your document is completely in view
on screen, it will be properly captured.
Visual alignment is the only way that distance capture can be achieved.

:
Readit Scholar HD has powerful document straightening and rotation abilities
but for the highest accuracy and speed, try to position your document as
squarely as possible and ensure pages are relatively flat.

MPORTANT
:
For capturing documents at A4 (Letter) and A3 (11 x 17) sizes, the close-up lens
should not be attached to the Scholar HD lens.
However, if you wish to zoom in and capture smaller objects or documents with
extremely small print (less than 6pt size) you can zoom in up to 21x with the
close up lens attached.
