15. Click the Preview button on the right side of the VistaScan
Beginner window. The scanner begins a low-resolution scan of
the item.
16. When the preview scan is complete the preview image is
displayed in the Preview window (on the left side of the
VistaScan window).
You can change the view of the Preview image using the
“Zoom Tool,” or select a scanning region using the “Frame
Selection Tool.” To find out more about how to use these tools,
click on the user tips text that appears when your cursor pauses
over the tool.
NOTE: You must have a browser installed in order to view the
VistaScan online help.
17. In the Click to Scan section of the VistaScan Beginner
window, click the icon that corresponds to the type of image
you are scanning.
For example, if you are scanning a color photograph, choose
“Color Photo.” To scan text or a black and white drawing,
choose “Text/Lineart.” The image is scanned and you return to
the PhotoDeluxe window.
NOTE: Choosing an icon in the “Click to Scan” area does two
things: it activates the scanner, and automatically sets the
scanner settings. This ensures you get the best scanning results
for the item you are scanning.
18. A pop-up message appears on the right side of the screen
indicating that you should click the Done tab.
19. Click the Done tab. A Save as window opens. Enter a file name
for the scanned image. Indicate which folder or directory you
want to save the image file to, and specify in what file format
you want to save the image.
NOTE: If you do not assign a file name, the computer
automatically assigns a name that consists of the date, and a
two-digit reference number.
20. Enter a graphic title for the image that will appear in the My
Photos window.
