Edit a scanned preview image

You can use the tools in the HP Scanning software to modify a preview image. Any changes that you make, such as brightness, image type, resolution, and more apply only to this scan session.

You can make additional changes in the HP Photosmart software after the image is scanned.

Edit a scanned photo or graphic

You can edit a scanned photo or graphic using the software you installed with the HP All- in-One. Using this software, you can rotate or crop the image, as well as adjust the brightness, contrast, and color saturation.

Edit a scanned document

Scanning text (also known as optical character recognition or OCR) enables you to bring the content of magazine articles, books, and other printed matter into your favorite word processor and many other programs as fully editable text. Learning to work with OCR correctly is important if you want to obtain the best results. Do not expect scanned text documents to be letter-perfect the first time you use your OCR software. Using OCR software is an art that takes time and practice to master.

NOTE: If you are using HP Photosmart Essential, the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software might not be installed on your computer. To install the OCR software, you must re-insert the software disk and select OCR under the Custom installation options.
