Scanning pictures Book Contents Index
Changing the output type
1 Create a selection area (page 51).
2 From the Output Type menu, choose an output
type for the image of the picture you scanned.
Make your output type choice based on:
whether the image will be displayed on a
monitor or printed in hardcopy
how many colors you want in the final scan
file size
After you select an output type from the
Output
Type
menu:
you will see the image change in the preview
area
the new output type displays in the info bar
the new image size displays in the status bar
a new sharpening level may appear in the
Sharpen Level tool
a new value may appear in the Output
Resolution
tool
For best results with images that will be
used on 256-color display monitors, do not
use the
256 Color Optimized Palette output
type.
When an optimized palette is used in an
image:
that palette is unique to that image and
the unique palette colors are applied to
the window that is displaying the image
colors in other windows that are
displayed at the same time will be
corrupted, because those other windows
use a standard, system palette
the window displaying the image with the
optimized palette will be temporarily
rendered with fewer colors when focus
changes to a different window
