Cropping allows you to capture a portion of the document being
scanned. All cropping options can be used with color/grayscale and
binary images. Front and Rear cropping are independent, however, for
simultaneous output scanning color/grayscale and binary cropping must
be the same per side. Only one cropping option can be assigned per
image. Select one of the following options:
• Aggressive: selecting this option will eliminate any residual black
border on any image edges. In order to achieve this, there is a
possibility that a small amount of image data from the edge of the
document may be lost
• Automatic: dynamically adjusts the cropping window for different
document sizes based on the edges of the image. Use this option
for batches of mixed-sized documents.
• Fixed to Transport: (used for batches of same-sized documents)
allows you to define the area or zone to be imaged. Fixed cropping
is used in conjunction with paper size and page layout and assumes
you are center-feeding your documents. If you are not using center
feeding, you must select the Area button to define your scan area.
See the section entitled “Defining the Scan Area” later in this
chapter.
• Relative To Document (zone processing): (used for batches of
same-sized documents) zone processing is a floating fixed crop
window (the zone) located relative to the upper left corner of a
document. It allows you to select an area on the document to be
delivered in either color/grayscale or binary format (a separate
window for both binary and color/grayscale may be defined).
Different parameters may be selected for both the front and rear of
the image.
For example, some applications have a requirement to store part of
an image in color and the rest of the image in binary format (this
saves storage space by not storing the entire image in color).
