Full Page Preview

This command shows one of the two viewing modes
available for your image (the other being the zoomed
preview, explained in the next section).
The full page preview is a preview of your image as
defined by the parameters set in the Preview Setup com-
mand (in the Preferences menu). For instance, if your
image is 8" x 5" but the dimensions in the Preview Setup
are 4" x 3", your full page preview will be 4" x 3".
The maximum size of the full page preview varies,
depending on your scanner model. For example, if the scan
bed (the glass surface) of your scanner has a maximum size
of 8.5" x 11", the maximum full page preview will be
limited to those dimensions.
The size of the full page preview can be changed by setting
new dimensions in the Preview Setup command. The new
dimensions will take effect, however, only with the next
preview. This means you need to click on the Preview
button so that the scanner does a new preview; only then
will you see the new dimensions of the full page preview.
You may wish to change the size of your full page preview
to improve performance and save memory. A smaller
preview area will occupy less memory, speed up process-
ing, and yield a higher-resolution preview. This is because
ScanWizard takes your preview image and dynamically
calculates how best to display that image in the smaller
preview area — resulting in a higher-resolution view.
