Scan Frames are thin, hinged, rectangular-shaped plastic frames (see following diagrams) which can hold a source document of a slightly smaller size. The Scan Frames come in a number of sizes, including 35mm, 60x60 mm and 4 x 5 inch. Orientation holes are located on the short sides of the frames. When one or more of these frames are placed on the scanner's object glass and the "Scan" button is clicked, the scanner will automatically detect the existence of each frame, using the orientation holes for reference, and will only include what is within each Scan Frame in the resulting scanned image.
