Scanning
Clear, Preview and Scan Buttons
The Clear, Preview and Scan buttons control the scanner. When you click
Clear, the image displayed in the preview area is cleared. When you click
Preview, the image on the scanner is scanned into the preview area but not
yet saved in the acquiring application. When you click Scan, the image
displayed in the preview area is scanned and sent to the acquiring application.
For details, see “Previewing an Image,” later in this chapter.
Toolbar
The toolbar has a set of tools that let you change the previewed image’s
shape and size. You can rotate the image, select a part of the image, zoom in
and out, create a negative image, flip an image, and turn rulers on and off.
For full details on these tools and their functions, see “Changing the Preview
Image Shape and Size,” later in this chapter.
Status and Message Areas
The status area at the bottom of the ScanGear CS-S window summarizes the
color mode, resolution, width and height, and the estimated file size of the
currently previewed image when it is acquired by the application. For more
information on estimating file sizes, see Chapter 5, “Scanning Techniques.”
The message area on the lower left of the window displays messages related
to the preview area and toolbar.
Settings Tabs
Each tab (Main, Tone, Preferences, and the device tab) contains settings that
let you modify the acquired image.
For information about the settings on the Main tab, see “Setting Scan Mode,
Resolution, and Dimensions.” For information about the settings on the Tone
tab, see “Setting Image Tones.” For information about the Preferences tab
settings, see “Setting General Preferences.” For information about the
FB1200S tab, see Chapter 4, “Scanning Devices.”
