2.Click and press the left mouse button, dragging the cropping tool across the image area you wish to crop.

3.When you’ve boxed in the area you wish to keep, release the left mouse button.

4.Click the Crop button in the top middle area of the window.

Tip: If you cropped the image to the wrong size, click the Reset button.

Note: Clicking the Reset button will undo all changes you’ve made to the image (including lightening, darkening, and rotation).

Step C: Lighten or Darken the Image

NeatWorks automatically adjusts for optimal brightness; however, in certain cases you may wish to manually lighten or darken the image. To do so:

1.With your mouse, press and drag the green-tipped arrow along the scale until you achieve the desired brightness effect.

2.Release the arrow at the desired place along the scale by releasing the mouse.

Step D: Save Changes to the Receipt Image

Once you made the desired changes to your image:

Click Keep Changes to save the image changes.

Alternatively, click Keep Changes to save the image changes and to re- scanalize (OCR) the image.

Best Practice for Using the Image Adjuster

Because the Image Adjuster does not allow for any additional changes after you adjust the lighter/darker scale, we recommend the following best practice for using the tool:

1.Rotate your image first, if necessary.

2.Crop your image next.

3.Adjust lighter/darker scale last.

4.Either keep changes or keep changes and scanalize.

Remember that clicking Reset will undo all changes you've made and will allow you to start over if necessary.
