Merging images

You can merge several images into one imageClosedThe 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). for an entire batchClosedA collection of documents or images that are uniquely indexed. A job setup can contain several batches, each up to 999999999 documents. Processing a batch means converting the batch to a specific output format (e.g., single-page TIFF, PDF, LaserFiche) and sending it to a batch destination folder/subdirectory. Batches can be processed one by one or together. as the batch is being scanned. For example, in a batch containing images of the front and back sides of checks, you could create one-sided images for all the checks. For more information on merging images, click here.
