Unit Of Measurement - Microtek ScanMaker 4700 User Manual

Settings window
dimensions shown in the edit boxes, together with the resolution setting
that you have selected. Size is calculated automatically. The resulting file
size depends on the image type (color, grayscale, etc); resolution; and
dimensions of the image.

Unit of Measurement

The unit of measurement lets you select the desired unit (inch, cm, mm,
point, pixel, pica) for your image dimensions.
Important: Make sure you select the correct unit of measurement before
entering any of the values for width or height in the Scan Frame Settings
or Output Settings.
Scan Frame options (Locks)
The Scan Frame options include locking scan frame, output lock, and keep
proportion lock.
The Locks control the behavior of the Scan Frame settings and the Output
settings. A third Lock lets you keep the proportion for image width and
height.
Scan Frame lock
This lets you lock in the settings of your scan frame, so that the width and
height dimensions of the frame are always preserved no matter where you
move the frame in your preview image.
If you know the exact input size for your image, or if you wish to "lock" the
settings of your scan frame to a particular size, enter the Scan Frame
width and height values first, then click the Scan Frame lock. Your scan
frame will be "fixed" at those values, so even if you move the scan frame
around the preview image, the dimensions of the frame itself will remain
unchanged.
