• 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 bi-tonal format (a separate
window for both bi-tonal and color/grayscale may be defined).
Different parameters may be selected for both the front and rear of
the image.
This option may be used in conjunction with Automatic cropping
where a separate color/grayscale or bi-tonal area to be saved is
desired. It is useful in applications where a photograph, signature,
embossment or seal appears in a consistent area for an application
(you may want that small area in color/grayscale and the rest in bi-
tonal).
• Fixed to Transport (used for batches of same-sized documents):
allows you to define the area or zone to be imaged. If you select this
option, enter the x and y offset values, width and length. You can
enter the desired values in the fields or use the arrow keys to define
the desired area. The Display window will show image placement as
you change the values.
The following options are only available when Fixed to Transport or
Relative to Document is selected.
- X-Offset  the distance from the left end of the scanner to the
left edge of the scanning area.
- Y-Offset — the position from the top end of the document to the
top end of the scanning area.
- Width — the width of the scanning area.
- Length — the length of the scanning area.
- Center Frame  automatically calculates the x-offset for center-
fed feeding based upon document size selected.
- Rotate Frame  automatically calculates the offset values based
upon feed orientation of the document size selected (landscape
vs. portrait).
NOTES:
• You can scan documents longer than 35.56 cm (14 in.) and less than
86 cm (34 in.) when the host PC is configured with adequate memory
(see “System requirements” for more information).
• Automatic and Relative to Document cropping in Flatbed mode
work well in most cases. When the scanner cover is removed to
accommodate large magazines, books, or other bound material or
when the flatbed glass becomes dirty, Automatic cropping
performance may not be as desired. In these cases, you might try
using the Image Edge Fill option or scanning in Fixed cropping mode
and more carefully aligning the document on the flatbed.
