Auto Area Segmentation

Makes grayscale images clearer and text recognition more accurate by separating the text from the graphics.

Enhances the red, green, or blue shades in the scanned image.

Brightness

Adjusts the overall lightness and darkness of the scanned image.

Contrast

Adjusts the difference between the light and dark areas of the overall scanned image.
