Splitting a document

You can manually split an existing document into two or more documents.

To split an existing document:

  1. Select Tools>Split Document.

  2. On the Image Viewer, move the split document cursor to the beginning or end of a pageClosedA page is always in paper form and is part of a paper document. A page can produce one image (single-sided page), two images (double-sided page), or four images (both color and black and white) after scanning. where you want to split the document. You cannot split the front side away from the back side of a page.

  3. Click the selected 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).. The new document will appear in the Batch Explorer.
