Scan Profiles Scan profiles are a convenient way to store settings that tell QuickScan how you want to process images while those images are being scanned. Scan profiles also provide powerful tools that ensure consistency across the documents you scan. By using scan profiles to process your documents, you can save time and ensure all the documents you specify are saved in the same format with the same compression type, and in the same location. Scan profiles can also automatically apply Image Processing (IP) Filters in the order you specify and allow you to process job separation pages. Pre-configured Scan Profiles QuickScan includes three pre-configured scan profiles: Binary TIFF for scanning black and white documents. Color JPEG for scanning color documents. Grayscale JPEG for scanning documents with up to 256 shades of gray. Scan a Document using a Scan Profile 1. Place one or more pages in your scanner. The New Batch dialog appears: 2 3. Choose one of the three pre-configured profiles from the Select a Profile section. Once you select a profile, its definition appears below the highlighted profile in the scroll box. In the example New Batch dialog above, we've selected the Binary TIFF profile. Its definition states the file format, compression, and naming schema used. The Path text box shows the location where your file will be saved and it is determined by the profile you've selected. You can accept this location or browse to the appropriate folder. The File Name is also determined by the profile you've selected. For now, accept the naming schema specified, but be sure to check the online Help (F1) for further information about editing profiles and naming schemas. Click the Scan button to process your batch. As each page of your batch is scanned it will appear in QuickScan's Page Viewer on the right side of the application window. A thumbnail version of each page will appear in the Thumbnail Viewer on the left side of the application window. When your scanner finishes scanning your pages the Continue Scan dialog appears: 4. 5. 6. 3 7. Click Stop Scanning to finish your batch, or place more pages in your scanner and click the Continue Scanning button to scan more pages using the same scan profile. [. . . ] This allows job separation without the dependency on the scanner manufacturer. Note: The options on the Job Separation tab are directly associated with the Output tab. For the options on the Job Separation tab to become available, you must activate the Use advanced Schema file naming option in the File Naming section on the Output tab, click the Edit button and choose the following pre-configured schema: ####\$$$$####;. Consult QuickScan's online Help (F1) or more information about file naming schemas. [. . . ]
