Advanced Scanning

Note:

Scaling changes the actual output size. Zooming changes only the view on your screen.

Note:

You can scan originals up to 8.5 x 14 inches.

Keep the above in mind when resizing or scaling an image if the file size of the scanned image is a concern.

Changing the Size of the Scanned Image

When you scan an image using the default settings, the output image is scanned at the same size and proportion as the original image.

However, the Perfection 600 software lets you change the size of the output image, either by changing the scale (magnification) of the original or by setting the size of the final image.

The relationship between the size of the framed original, the scale, and the output size is:

Frame Size x Scale = Output Size

For example, if you frame a photograph that is 2 x 3 inches, and enter a scale of 200%, the output size of the scanned image would be 4 x 6 inches.
