Binding Margins of a Booklet are Distorted or Blurred

When scanning a booklet on the scanner glass, characters may appear distorted or blurred on the
binding margin. If this problem occurs, text is not recognized correctly when you save the scanned image
as a Searchable PDF. To decrease distortion or blurring on the binding margin, gently press down the
document cover and hold it down while scanning to flatten the booklet. Make sure you do not move the
booklet while scanning.
Caution: Do not press the document cover with too much force. Otherwise, the booklet or the scanner
may be damaged.
