Blanking an image

You can manually blank out parts of individual images in the Image Viewer.

To blank an existing imageThe scanner converts sides to images. Every image belongs to a document with a unique document number. The software gives every image a sequential number inside its document. One document can contain up to 999999999 images. The software distinguishes between an image coming from the front or rear side of a page. This allows the software to perform side-specific processing (e.g., deletion of blank/rear sides) where appropriate. The software also distinguishes between color, grayscale, and black and white images and can perform color/grayscale versus black and white specific processing. Example: Document 250 contains two double-sided pages and produces an electronic document number 250, which contains four images (1-4).:

1. Click on an image that you want to blank in the Image Viewer.

2. Select Tools>Draw Region.  

3. Click and drag the draw region cursor to create a rectangle over the part of your image that you want to blank. Release the cursor; the rectangle is now green.

4. Select Tools>Blank. The image will now display a blank area where you had positioned the green rectangle.

5. Click OK to save your setting. Your blanked image is now saved.
