Book/Sheet modes

Book mode

Select this mode when scanning a thick original (books). Selecting this mode automatically
activates the following functions:
Functions automatically activated
Curved text line correction
This function corrects the position of the text on the curved surface near the center of the
book (area between pages) of a thick open book, ensuring that an undistorted image is
made.
Text compression correction
The text at the center of the book (area between pages) of an open book often looks
crowded with little space between characters, when viewed from above, due to the curved
surface. If simply scanned as is, the text appears compressed. This function expands the
characters accordingly, providing an image as close as possible to the original form.
NOTE
When the text is within 5 mm from the spine of the book or the inclination at the center
exceeds 60°, proper correction may not be made.
Auto focus
This function is available only to Book mode. The original height is detected, and the focal
point of the Scanner can be adjusted to be within a range from 0 to 65 mm above the book
table according to the detected original height.
