Fig. 3.2 TWAIN Interface (Using Image Pals 2 GO! software)

Preview Window

The interface window’s right side displays Pre-scanned images. The Crop Box (dashed line) surrounding the perimeter is used to select the area of the pre-scanned image that you want to scan. Adjusting this area significantly effects the amount of memory used and thus time required to perform the scan. It is always recommended that you adjust the crop box to scan only the portion of the image that you need to scan. Position the pointer over a corner of the crop box, click, hold, and drag the border to adjust the scanning area.
