Set threshold for black and white bitmaps
When you want to save a black and white image
from a color or black and white photograph, you
can often improve the result by changing the
threshold for the division between black and white
pixels.
The black and white threshold can be changed
with the
Black & White Threshold tool for an image
that has the
Black & White Bitmap (raster) output
type. (See page
34 for more about the Black &
White Threshold
tool.)
Applying the default threshold
Click the Auto button in the Black & White
Threshold
tool.
The optimal black and white threshold setting
determined by the scanning software is
applied to the
Black & White Threshold tool.
The result of the change to the threshold
setting can be seen in the preview area.
