About Scan Templates

Before it can scan a document, the Electronic Document Processing
System needs information about:
The original document: Are the pages assorted sizes? Does it
contain text or photos or both?
The scanning process: Do you want single or double-sided scan?
High or low resolution? Do you need to have the image rotated?
The image file: What format do you need (for example, TIFF or PDF)?
Where do you want to send the file?
To save entering all this information every time you use the scan function,
you use a predefined scan template.
The administrator creates and maintains a number of scan templates on
behalf of other users. This set of templates is called the public template
