ADJUSTING THE BRIGHTNESS AND CONTRAST

Sometimes an item is scanned with the brightness and contrast set to be too light or too dark. For example, a note written with a light pencil may need to be scanned darker to improve legibility.

You can adjust the brightness and contrast at which grayscale and color items are scanned. You can only adjust the brightness for black-and- white items. If an item is currently displayed in the preview area, the changes you make using the Brightness and Contrast sliders are reﬂected in the preview item.

To adjust the brightness and contrast:

1.Click the Twain icon on the Command Bar, or choose Acquire from the File menu.

The Visioneer Scan Manager appears.

2.Click the Adv. Settings button.

The Advanced Settings dialog box appears.

Drag to adjust contrast

3.Drag the Brightness slider to the left to make the item darker or to the right to make the item lighter. When you release the mouse button, the preview item shows the change.
