Chapter II. Usage and
Operating the Scanner
Your scanner accepts 35mm slides and negatives. However, some software
programs have limitations as to the information they can handle. The capacity of the
computer's memory and free space on your hard drive can also limit the physical size
of the document that you scan.
There are two different ways to operate the scanner:
1. From within an image-editing program that can acquire images from the
scanner.
2. Using FotoLite feature by pressing Transparency / Negative Scan button.
The FotoLite program is automatically installed as your scanner software.
An image-editing program (i.e. Presto! ImageFolio) has been bundled with your
scanner on the included Setup/Application CD-ROM. It will allow you to alter and
correct any scanned images by using a variety of filters, tools and effects.
The FotoLite button enables you to conveniently scan images and save them
automatically in your computer.
Please refer to the FotoLite on-line Help (accessible by right-clicking on the
FotoLite icon
located near the clock icon on the Windows system tray, and
choosing Help) for more information about these functions.
