Scanning basics
Please read the basic scanning section in its entirety before moving on. Before any
scan is made, the film holder must be loaded and inserted into the scanner. Refer to
the scanner hardware manual for instructions as well as film handling tips.
Three types of scans can be made singularly or in combination depending on the
workflow and degree of processing:
Do not launch the utility with a film holder in the scanner and confirm the front door
is closed. The utility can also be launched from an image-processing application. See
the Windows and Macintosh installation section.
Scan
To display a preview of a specific image. A prescan allows an image
to be cropped or corrected using the scanner’s image-processing
tools.
Prescan
To display thumbnails of each image in the 35mm or APS film holder.
An index scan is useful when scanning multiple frames on one film
strip or for selecting a specific frame among similar images.

To save and export an image. Image size, resolution, and file format
are specified with this scan.
