- Image type - gray
(256 shades) or black&white.
If the form contains color elements (pictures, color letters or background) and you plan to print it out in color or save in a color image file, select the color image type. - Resolution - use 200 dpi for scanning in shades of gray and 300 dpi - for scanning in black&white or for forms set in a small font size (8 pts and less).
- Brightness - an average value of 50% is good nearly in
all cases.
If the form is too dark or too light, change the brightness value. The brightness value should be adjusted so as to make sure all the form elements are retained on the image.
Click the Scan button. It may also be captioned as "Finish", depending on the scanner manufacturer.
