Color Tab
VRS supports color features of the Böwe Bell + Howell Spectrum series, the Fujitsu
fi 4860C, and the Fujitsu fi-4990C through the Color tab. You can use the Color tab to
set up color-related features such as Color Dropout and JPEG Compression. The
Color tab follows the Endorser tab on the Advanced Properties dialog box. The Color
tab is made up of three groups: Front Side Dropout Color, Back Side Dropout Color,
and JPEG Compression.

In some cases, you may want to remove all instances of one color, such as the
background color, on a document in order to make the necessary data more accessible
to OCR engines, etc. One method to effectively “erase” this unwanted color during
scanning is to use color dropout. If you select a color to “drop out,” your scanner will
ignore that color, but capture everything else.
The Front Side Dropout Color and Back Side Dropout Color groups provide the
following dropout color choices: None, Red, Green, or Blue. The default is None. If a
scanner supports duplex, you can select different dropout colors for the front and for
the back side.
