Introduction

Advanced scanning grew out of the research and development we conducted when

we were building the scanner software. We needed a way to control the fundamental

aspects of the scanner and visualize the results, so we could understand what

worked and what didn’t.

The main screen scanning options - “Single-Colored” and “Multi-Colored” - both

codify and encapsulate the knowledge we gained through using the advanced

features. These have improved with each release, and now they’ve reached a point

where their results are often as good as those you’d get in Advanced. But to

understand what they’re doing and why, the best way to explain is to take you

through Advanced scanning, so you can have a similar journey to the one we’ve had –

learning what are the fundamental aspects of the scanner and how they affect the

end result.

Understanding these things and using the Advanced features is surprisingly easy,

especially when you give them a try in the software.

Mac vs. Windows

The concepts presented in this document apply to both Mac and Windows software.

However, the two software packages look and function slightly differently. We are

actively working on a UX unification plan for our software.

Thanks for your patience while we get the software packages unified.

Advanced Scanning for Windows

To get into the Advanced Scanning area in the Windows software, click on the “New

Scan” button in the home screen, and then click the “Advanced” button at the

bottom of the next screen.

Let’s take a tour of the screens in Advanced Scanning.
