To
get a good scan result in Scan Tailor and minimize errors in Accounts Payable
software, follow the following rules when scanning:
·
Do not scan in black
and white - scan in grayscale, or, if necessary - in color.
·
Do not scan at a
resolution below 300 DPI. More is better, but both scanning and processing slow
down. Usually scan at 300 or 600 DPI.
·
Avoid scanning in JPEG
is a lossy format, and further re-saving JPEG to other formats will no longer
return quality.
·
When scanning, the TIFF
format is usually used, but be careful - TIFF can use jpeg algorithms for
compression. As a rule, it is possible to set saving parameters in TIFF format,
then you need to select the compression method LZW - this is lossless
compression format. If this is not possible, scan it in PNG format - lossless
compression algorithms are guaranteed, or, in extreme cases, BMP files are
uncompressed and therefore huge, and, in addition, they are not accepted in
Scan Tailor, so they will need to be In the future, convert to one of the
formats using lossless compression.
·
Avoid the
"Document" scanning mode, and generally try to disable all options
for improving the scans. A single improvement (ST) is always better than a
two-fold (software for scanning, then ST).
·
If the scanned book is
printed on thin paper and there is a translucence effect on the back of the
page, you can recommend inserting a sheet of black paper into the next and
previous spreads at least on the turns containing illustrations.
To
know Accounts Payable
Scanning in more details, now you can follow these tips too:
Begin scanning the collapsible mechanisms from the
collected state
When
scanning a subassembly, component, or moving mechanism, the original position
of all parts is scanned first. After that, the mechanism can be disassembled
and digitized each element individually.
Fix mobile elements of the object
If
there are movable elements on the object, they must be securely fixed before
scanning.
