Edit a scanned photo or graphic
You can edit a scanned photo or graphic using the HP Photosmart Software. Use this
software to adjust the brightness, contrast, color saturation, and more. You can also rotate
the image using the HP Photosmart Software.
For more information, see the onscreen HP Photosmart Software Help.
Edit a scanned document using optical character recognition (OCR) software
You can use OCR software to import scanned text into your preferred word-processing
program for editing. This allows you to edit faxes, letters, newspaper clippings, and many
other documents.
You can specify the word-processing program that you want to use for editing. If the word-
processing icon is not present or active, either you do not have word-processing software
installed on your computer, or the scanner software did not recognize the program during
the installation. See the onscreen Help for the HP photo and imaging software for
information about how to create a link to the word-processing program.
The OCR software does not support scanning colored text. Colored text is always
converted to black-and-white text before being sent to OCR. Thus, all text in the final
document is in black and white, regardless of the original color.
Because of the complexity of some word-processing programs and their interaction with
the device, it is sometimes preferable to scan to Wordpad (a Windows accessory), and
then cut and paste the text into the preferred word-processing program.
