Scanning Procedures - Canon FS 3.6 User Manual

Scanning Procedures

Although scanning procedures vary according to the image type (color, grayscale or
black and white), the basic procedures are the same. Read the following
procedures as a guideline for scanning.
Set the film type.
Select a film type that matches the film in use from among the following
options: 35 mm color negatives/color positives/monochrome negatives or
IX240 color negatives/color positives/monochrome negatives.
Set the image type.
For colour images, select [24-bit colour]. For grayscale images, select [8-bit
grayscale]. For black and white images, select [Black and White]. If
CanoCraft FS has been started as a TWAIN driver from within a TWAIN-
compliant application program, you can also [36-bit colour] for colour
images and [12-bit grayscale] for grayscale images.
Determine the image size and resolution.
Set the scan resolution, output resolution and magnification to suit your
requirements for the printing size and monitor size of the image.
Insert the film.
(Refer to the Quick Start Guide or electronic manual.)
Initiate the preview scan.
Start off by previewing the image before initiating the final scan.
Adjust the color balance, halftone pattern or threshold values.
If the preview image did not reproduce as well as expected, adjust the
coloring and brightness of a color image, or the shadows and highlights of a
grayscale image, or the threshold of a black and white image.
Select the area of the image to be included in the final scan.
If you wish to crop the image, select the scan area by dragging the mouse
cursor.
Save (scan) the image.
When CanoCraft FS is started from within Photoshop, the scanned image
cannot be saved. To save, close CanoCraft FS and save the file using the save
function in Photoshop.
