Overview
Welcome to Nikon Scan 3! At its most basic, Nikon Scan is a
driver that acts as an interface between your scanner and your
computer, making it possible to preview the image to be scanned,
adjust scanner settings, and scan the image into another applica-
tion. It also allows you to take advantage of the advanced fea-
tures of your Nikon film scanner, such as multi-sample scanning
3
and Digital ICE photo retouch options. Nikon Scan is more
than just a scanner driver, however. Using its sophisticated color
enhancement and sharpening tools, you can edit images before
or after scanning.

dows) or acquire plug-in (Macintosh) that can be used to scan

images directly into any application that supports the TWAIN
standard (Windows) or Adobe Photoshop 5.0 acquire plug-ins
(Macintosh). It also functions as an independent, or "stand-alone,"
application that, in addition to supporting the scanning and edit-
ing functions included in the TWAIN source or acquire plug-in,
allows you to open saved images, edit them, and save them to
disk.
