Choosing an Output Size and Resolution The "Crop" palette in the Tool Chest is used to specify the size and resolution of the crop when opened in the host application ( 26). For ex- ample, to scan an image so that it can be printed within the margins of A4 (21.0 × 29.7 cm) or letter- 1 sized (11˝ × 8.5˝ ) paper on a typical inkjet printer: 1 Click the triangle next to "Crop" in the Tool Chest to open the "Crop" palette. 2 2 Choose Keep this Crop and use the mouse to select a crop in the preview area ( 34). 3 Choose Centimeters or Inches from the out- put units menu. 4 3 4 Enter a value for Height or Width that will fit on A4 paper (remember to leave a margin of least 2 cm/0.79˝ ). The other value will automatically be adjusted to maintain the current crop; if the result is still too large, enter a value that will fit on A4 paper. 5 Enter an output resolution of 360 pixels per 5 inch. Scan Bit Depth The scan bit depth determines the maximum number of colors in the image after scanning. A choice of sixteen and eight bits (5000 ED) or fourteen and eight bits (COOLSCAN V ED) is available in the "Scanner Extras" palette. For more information, see the Nikon Scan Reference Manual (on CD). Scan Image Enhancer The image enhancement tools in the Tool Chest can be used to enhance images before they are scanned. For example, the Scan Image Enhancer automatically adjusts brightness, contrast, and hue to produce an image that can be printed or used "as is," without further alteration (note that this will increase scanning times and may not have the desired effect on dark images). For information on the Scan Image Enhancer and the other image adjustment options and scan settings available in Nikon Scan, see "Nikon Scan" ( 39) or the Nikon Scan Reference Manual (on CD). Easy Scanning Guide The Easy Scanning Guide gives examples of how to adjust "Crop" palette settings in a variety of situations. 35
