The User defined option provides the greatest efficiency and flexibility in choosing the image area that meets your specific application needs since it allows you to customize the image area. If you select User defined, the Setup… button will be activated. Click Setup… to display the Select Image Area dialog box. See the section entitled, “Setting a User Defined image area” later in this chapter for more information.

NOTE: If User defined is selected, but the area is not subsequently

defined, the software will default to using Minimum.

6.Auto Scan Length: Allows the software to determine scan length based upon the distance between image marks. Auto Scan Length only determines the length of the image, not the width. The width is still determined by the Image Area setting.

7.Add Extra Scan Lines: Adds extra scan lines to the end of each scanned image. If the space between the images on the film is tight, enabling this option can help ensure that you capture the entire image.

If Normal resolution is selected, 100 scan lines will be added.

If Enhanced resolution is selected, 200 scan lines will be added.

Special Processing Controls

The following options are used to improve auto cropping, deskew and border removal.

8.Deskew Algorithm: this option requires Auto Deskew to be enabled on the Control Panel. Two deskew algorithms are available, Normal and Best.

Normal processes the image faster and does a good job at deskewing the image.

Best takes longer to deskew the image and provides the best deskewed quality.

Minimum Angle: enter a deskew angle from 0 to 45 degrees. The software will deskew the scanned image if the angle of skewed image is equal to or more than the value in this field. It is suggested that you set a value 5 degrees or less.
