Setting the ScanSnap
4
• "Setting for text only document" checkbox
Mark or unmark the checkbox according to the type of your document as described
below.
• Mark this checkbox when scanning documents containing only printed or hand-
written text.
• Clear this checkbox when scanning documents containing photographs.
• "Allow automatic blank page removal" checkbox
If this checkbox is marked, the ScanSnap detects blank pages in the document and
automatically removes them to output images.
For example, when a stack of documents containing both double-sided and single-sided
documents is scanned in Duplex scan mode, this feature removes only the backside (i.e.
blank pages) of single-sided documents from the output images.
* No scanned images are generated if all the sheets in the document are
recognized as blank pages.
• "Correct skewed character strings automatically" checkbox
If this checkbox is marked, the ScanSnap detects a skew of the documents and outputs
corrected images. Up to +/-5 degrees of skew can be corrected.
ATTENTION
The following types of documents may be accidentally recognized
as blank pages:
• Almost blank documents containing only a few characters
• Documents of only one color (solid color including black) and
without any patterns, lines, or characters
Before discarding the scanned documents, check for pages
accidentally removed from the output image. If any, you need to
re-scan the document.
ATTENTION
This function detects a document skew based on the characters on
the document. Therefore, it may not work properly for the following
kinds of documents:
• Documents on which the pitches of lines or characters are
extremely narrow, or adjacent characters contact with each other
• Documents with many outlined or decorated characters
• Documents with many photographs or figures and only a few
characters
• Documents with characters in patterned background
• Documents with characters printed in various directions (e.g.
plans)
• Documents with long diagonal lines
• Documents with handwritten characters
*When you scan such documents, clear the checkbox.
