Creating a custom
dropout color to drop a
single color

In this example, let’s assume you want to configure a custom dropout
color that will drop a single color from a document.

1. Select a Setting Shortcut from the main Kodak Scanner window

that closely describes your desired output.

NOTE: The shortcut will need to include a Black and White (1-bit)

or Grayscale (8-bit) image.

2. Select Settings to display the Image Settings window.

3. Select the Black and White (1-bit) or Grayscale (8-bit) image on

the General tab.

4. Select Configure within the Color dropout option on the

Enhancements tab.

5. Select the Single tab.

6. Select the Color's Add icon to display the Add window.

7. Enter the name of the custom color.

8. Place a representative document in the input tray of the scanner.

9. Select Preview to perform a preview scan and add the color.

10. Select a predefined outline from the Outline's Add icon.

11. Adjust the outline by placing it over an area of the document that

contains the color to be dropped (i.e. area of the document to learn).

NOTE: Some documents contain different shades of the same

color. For those documents, it is recommended that you
start by placing the outline over an area that contains the
darkest shade.

12. Select Display Dropped Image to see the effect of the learning.

If all of the color is not dropped, repeat the following steps until all
the color is dropped:

• select Display Color Image
• add another outline and place it over an area that was not

dropped

• select Display Dropped Image to see the effect of the updated

learning

13. Select Save to save the learned information.
