Digitizing

The process of converting an image into computer-usable (digital) information that can be saved as a file, printed, faxed, or otherwise manipulated on your computer.

dpi

The abbreviation for dots per inch. The resolution of a monitor or printer is measured in how many dots per horizontal inch it can display or print. See also, Optical resolution, Pixel, Resolution.

Driver

The software that lets you run a peripheral device such as a printer, scanner, video monitor, and so on. ScanGear CS-S is a scanner driver.

Easy Acquire

A method to allow quick scanning without manipulating scanner settings. When the Easy Acquire check box is selected, and you click a button in the ScanGear Toolbox window, the scan occurs automatically, using the default settings.

End Points

The points at each end of a preset or custom tone curve. The curve end points cannot be deleted. If they are dragged to or past an edge, they remain on the edge. Add points to the curve by clicking anywhere in the curve box. (Tone tab - Special Tone Curves)

Eyedropper

A Histogram tool used to sample the Black-point, Mid-point, and White-point areas in the previewed image. (Tone tab - Histogram)

Full Platen

The maximum scannable area on the scanner’s document glass, 8.50 x 11.64 inches (width of U.S. Letter and length of A4 paper sizes).

Gamma Curve

The Gamma curve tool lets you change the midtones of colors to increase the contrast between colors, and enhance the overall image. When you increase the Gamma value, light colors are made lighter, and dark colors are made darker. The graphed curve represents the relationship between input and output values for the midtones of the preview image.
