File Size Estimates
ScanGear CS-S displays an estimated file size for your scan in the status area
on the lower left of the ScanGear CS-S window. The following table provides
some estimates for the same 6 inches x 4 inches color photograph scanned at
typical modes, resolutions, and output sizes.
Scan Mode
Color (24 bit)
Color (36 bit)

Text Enhanced
The color mode, resolution, and size also affect the length of time it takes to
scan an image. If you are scanning at a high resolution in Color mode, the
scan may take a lot longer than if you are scanning at lower resolutions, or in
Black and White or Grayscale.
