With ScanWizard Pro, you can create a customized film profile for your negative
film, based on an existing negative film profile. This lets you create film profiles at
will or as the need arises, and allows you to use the profiles for subsequent scans as
well.
1. Place the negative film to be customized in the proper film holder and insert into
your scanner.
2. Go to the Preview window and click the Scan Material icon. From the submenu
that appears, choose Negative Film.
3. Go to the Settings window, and click the Film Type button. Select Custom at the
bottom of the menu.
4 When a dialog box appears, follow the steps outlined. First, click the Overview
option in the dialog box. When the overview image appears in the dialog box
window, select the film base (the area or perimeter just outside the film exposure
itself).
5. Click the Prescan option. When the prescan image appears, fine-tune the selection
area you made in step #4 to make sure that the film base is properly selected.
6. Choose the base film type on which the custom negative film profile will be
based. In general, select an existing film profile closest to your new film type. In
this example, we chose Kodak Gold 100-6.
7. Click the Customize option in the dialog box.
8. When the customization process is completed, enter a file name for the new
negative film profile and a description. Take note that the new film will appear in
the Settings Window Film Type menu by description, not by file name.
9. Click the Save button. The saved profile will now appear in the Film Type menu
in the Settings window.
10.Click the Close button in the Customize Negative Film Type dialog box to return
to the Preview window.
11. Select the newly created customized profile from the Film Type menu to scan your
new negative film type. In this example, it is Kodak Gold 100 New.
