SELECTING THE AREA OF THE ITEM YOU WANT TO SCAN

NOTE: The steps for selecting the area to scan are slightly different for the PaperPort 6000B scanner. If you have a PaperPort 6000B scanner please skip this section and see page 17.

By default, the PaperPort software automatically scans an entire item placed on the scanner. However, you may want to select only a certain area of an item to scan. Selecting an appropriate scan area can result in a faster scan and a smaller file size.

To select the area you want to scan, you can use the predefined scan area icons or manually select an area. For example, if you have a photo that is letter size, but you want to scan only an area approximately 6 x 8 inches, you can use the A5 icon to set these dimensions for you. The Predefined scan areas are as follows:

Auto—Automatically sets the entire item as the scan area. By default, Auto is selected.

Card—Scans an area 4 x 2.5 inches (10.2 x 6.4 cm), equivalent to an average business card.

A5—Scans an area 5.8 x 8.3 inches (14.8 x 21 cm).

B5—Scans an area 7.2 x 10.1 inches (18.2 x 25.7 cm).

Letter—Scans an area 8.5 x 11 inches (21.6 x 27.9 cm).

A4—Scans an area 8.3 x 11.7 inches (21 x 29.7 cm).

If you don’t select an icon, Auto is automatically selected. You can also manually select the area that is scanned by dragging the borders surrounding the preview image to reduce or enlarge the area.
