You can select what you want from a preview, and then have the scanner disregard the rest. Otherwise you'll have to use an editing program to crop out everything you don't need.
Text normally gets scanned as an image, but you can convert it into text that can also be edited. Select "OCR" as the scan type when you scan with MF Toolbox. The software that comes with this machine will convert any text in the scanned image into text data that you can then edit with a text editor. For more information about this function, see Scanning Using MF Toolbox.
