Improving The Image Quality - ScanSoft PAPERPORT 3.6 Manual

I
If you inadvertently insert an item at an angle into the scanner, the
PaperPort software can automatically straighten the image as it is scanned.
When you scan an item that is narrower than 8
or that has torn edges, PaperPort can trim the ragged black edges.
If an image is still skewed after you have scanned it, you can straighten
the page using either the Auto-Straighten Page command or the
Straighten Page tool.
The PaperPort software also has a SharpPage setting for optimizing the
readability of scanned items. When it is turned on, SharpPage causes all
of the text and image details to show up more vividly. SharpPage is
available for the Article, Letter, Business Card, and Custom scan modes
(which have a bit depth of 1-bit). It is not available for the Snapshot and
Photograph scan modes (which have other bit depths).
To improve the image automatically when you scan:
1. Click the Settings button on the Command Bar, or from the Edit
2. Select one or all the Image Improvement options.
