Save to a file
The image in the selection area can be saved to a file, then the image file can be inserted into another program’s document with an Insert File or Import File command.
You will need to know what file format to use when saving the file.
File formats
The scanning software can save images in several graphics file formats.
T I P
Not all output types can be saved in all file formats. Only the valid file formats for the output type applied to the image can be selected from the Save as type list box in the Save As dialog box.
Bitmap Image (.bmp)
An image file format used by Microsoft Windows and many Windows programs. This is often a good choice because Windows itself and most Windows programs accept the .bmp file type.
FlashPix (.fpx)
A FlashPix file contains a complete image plus several lower resolution copies of that image. The advantage of the FlashPix file format over other file formats is that a software program can automatically select the best resolution for a particular job to make editing and using images in programs faster and easier.
