Set the output dimensions

To get the best quality image, determine in
advance the physical dimensions you want for the
image and set those dimensions with the

Dimensions

tool in the scanning software. For

example, if the original is smaller than the size you
need the image to be in another program, resize it
now. Resizing an image in the destination
program can cause the image to become fuzzy or
jagged.

The usual procedure for setting output dimensions
follows this order:

1

Choose the units of measurement you want to
work with (page

59

).

2

Create a selection area (page

51

) and adjust the

size of the selection area (page

55

).

3

Adjust the output dimensions (page

60

).

See page

for more about the

Dimensions

tool.
