With most flatbed scanners, Pagis Pro can perform a two-pass
scan. This optimizes binary (black and white) scanning for the
text layer and color scanning for the graphics layer. If you select
Letter as the page type, or Photograph, Pagis Pro will only
perform a one-pass scan. This is because Pagis Pro does not
need to segment the resulting file into multiple layers. For more
information about layers in scanned Pagis documents, see “About
Pagis (XIF) files” in Chapter 4.
As the page is being scanned, a Scanner Progress dialog tracks
scanning status. After the page is completely scanned, additional
buttons appear on the dialog box, allowing you to scan more
pages or end the job and save the scanned image (Figure 3–5).
