Adjusting the Preview Image View

To make it easier to work with your preview image, you can change
aspects of its display.

Changing the View Size

You can enlarge a preview image to better view its details. Each
enlargement doubles the size of the image up to a maximum of four
times the size of the original image.

As you enlarged the image, you can just as easily reduce it. Each
reduction decreases the size of the image by one-half.

1. On the toolbar, click Zoom.

2. To enlarge, left-click the mouse pointer on the image.

To reduce, right-click the mouse pointer on the image.

Displaying Rulers

To work precisely with a preview image, you can display rulers on the
top and left borders of the preview area. The rulers display in inches or
centimeters, depending on what you have set as the unit of measure on
the Main tab.

On the toolbar, click Rulers.

Adjusting the Selection Size

When you first preview an image, the selection size is the same as your
source document paper size.

You can adjust the selection size of an image in order to isolate a specific
area of the image for a more restrictive preview scan. For example, in
scanning a letter, you may want to isolate and save a company logo by
itself, ignoring the rest of the letter.

You define the selection size of your image by drawing a border around
the part of the image that you would like to isolate. Alternatively, you
can define and orient the dimensions of the selection with respect to the
upper left corner of the preview area. Regardless of how you define a
selection, you can easily and quickly change its dimensions.
