Scanning Documents; Types Of Documents You Can Scan - Canon MultiPASSTM C50 User Manual

Scanning Documents

The first step in scanning a document is to load the document into the MultiPASS
C50's Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). You can then use the MultiPASS
Desktop Manager to scan documents and save the scanned images as .TIF, .BMP,
.PCX, or .DCX files. The MultiPASS C50 can also scan documents directly into
any Windows application with a TWAIN-compatible interface.
Once you have scanned the document, you can use the Desktop Manager to view
the document on your PC's monitor, as well as save, rotate, print, or copy it to the
PC's clipboard. You can also process the scanned image using applications such
as Adobe PageMaker , Adobe Photoshop , Zsoft PhotoFinish
