CONTENTS GLOSSARY INDEX Chapter 7 Frequently Asked Questions 93 "Top Ten" List Here is a list of the "Top Ten" pieces of advice for scanning. 1. Start with the best possible original image to scan. 2. Select only the part of the image you want to scan. Preview the image and select it. Not only does a more precise selection save file space, but your image quality will be much higher. 3. Check the output file size before beginning the scan. Make sure you have enough room if you are scanning files that take up a lot of disk space. 4. Match your Scan Mode to the output purpose. If you are scanning text, use the Text Enhanced mode. If you are scanning line art, use the Black and White setting, and so on. 5. Match your scan resolution to the type of file you need. If you are scanning images for use as .GIF or .JPG files on the Web, you do not have to scan at 600 dpi. Although it is recommended that you scan at a higher resolution than you need for high-quality color images, you should balance that factor against your planned use for the image. 6. Take advantage of the Gamma tone curve and other tone tools to correct your images. 7. Try to use Full Color mode on your monitor so you can view your preview image as accurately as possible. 8. If you are using OCR software, scan in Text Enhanced at 300 dpi or higher. 9. If creating halftones, scan at twice the halftone resolution. 10.Take advantage of the preview feature and preview as much as you want before scanning. 93
