By
scanning, you understand the process by which, through a scanner, you get an
image of a document. Scanning processes are almost always used as image formats
Tiff or PDF and not some even more known as for example the JPG. That's because
the first 2 are multi-page formats and the JPG is not.
Multipage
means that it allows the capture of a document of several pages in a single
computer file (which in turn is paged). JPG only supports one page, so if a
3-page document is scanned in JPG, 3 files of one page each will be obtained as
a result.
The
process of scanning documents is very closely linked to some of the Zero Coma products.
To scan a document, you need to know the document
scanning service properly. Several things are necessary:
·
Verify the state in
which the document is located and if it has elements that may affect a correct
scanning process, such as clips, staples and some similar elements.
·
Any scanner that is of the
TWAIN type is theoretically compatible with Edas applications, however, the
enormous differences between some models and others and the enormous variety
offered by the market means that you have to choose with great care the model
you want to use (the speeds Scanning in models that have an automatic document
feeder can range between 8-10 pages per minute and 300-400 pages per minute).
Among all models should be discarded those whose scanning capabilities are very
basic and lacking automatic document feeder. Semi-professional models are a
great choice and in addition to a higher scanning speed they provide better
compression algorithms and higher image quality.
Keep
in mind that depending on the state of document
storage and preservation of the document (s) to be scanned, you will have
to make the corresponding adjustments in the brightness, color, resolution,
contrast, etc ... parameters to achieve an optimal image.
