You can set the scanning options in the ABBYY FineReader
scanning dialog box or in the scanner driver dialog box. See the
"Selecting the Scanning Interface"
section for more information about the dialog box.
Make sure that your scanner is connected properly and switched
on.
Consult your scanner documentation to ensure it is set up
correctly. Be sure to install the software provided with your
scanner. Some scanner models must be switched on before you power
up the computer.
Place your documents face down on the scanner, making sure they
are properly adjusted. Skewed images may be converted
incorrectly.
Printed documents are best scanned in grayscale at 300 dpi.
Conversion quality depends on the quality of the original document
and scanning parameters. Poor image quality may have an adverse
effect on the quality of conversion. Be sure to select the scanning
parameters appropriate for your document.
