Splitting an image

The software allows you to vertically split black and white, color, or grayscale images as they are being scanned.  For more general information on splitting images, click here.

This option is not available with Capture Pro Limited Edition.

To split images during scanning:

1. Click the Split Page or Image checkbox.

The Merge and Split options cannot be active at the same time. To disable the Merge option, open the Merge tab and uncheck the Merge front and back into one single image checkbox.

2. Choose from 2 to 12 images in the Number of resultant images drop-down list.

3. Select a range of widths for the page or image from the Split image if width is between field. If the page width falls within this range, it will be split. If either the front or back side falls outside the range, neither side will be split.

4. Select Front and/or Back to activate a split. A graphic will be displayed showing your selection. For example, if you enable both checkboxes, the  icons will appear with a red "X" on each page.

5. Click on each image segment in the order you want the images to be output. As you click on an image segment, the red "X" disappears.

6. Any image segment that is still marked with a red "X" will be deleted and not sent to output. This option might be useful for the last page of a pamphlet that is always blank.

7. When using a simplex-only scanner, selecting both Front and Back will result in no split. Select Front only to cause a split.

8. If desired, click Reset order to delete the output order and start again.

9. Click OK to save your settings and close the Page Setup dialog box.
