3.6 Saving and Recording Images
3 - 96
3.6.2 Preparing Images for Recording
The source of images to be recorded is frozen images in the image memory except for direct
photographing.
(1) Freezing an image
(a) Using Run/Freeze button
Scanning image will be frozen. When scanning speed is slow, scanning continues to the
end of the frame and then, the image is frozen. Image size is 1280 x 960 pixels in full
screen. It is 640 x 480 pixels in small and dual screen mode.
(b) Capturing an image
During the image capture process, depending on the particular scanning speed
employed, the image is frozen either after integration or after one frame is scanned
slowly. Image size depends on the selected capture resolution (640 x 480, 1280 x 960,
2560 x 1920 or 5120 x 3840 pixels).
(c) Direct photographing
After photographing, the image is frozen in the image memory. Image size depends
on the capture resolution selectable with Capture resolution select button (640 x 480,
1280 x 960 or 2560 x 1920 pixels).
(2) The source of image to be recorded
Several commands or buttons are placed on multiple areas. The image sources for the
commands are as follows.
(a) When you use menu commands, or buttons on the control panel, the scanning image
will be used as the image source. Image size depends on the way of freezing, as
mentioned above.
(b) When you use buttons on the Captured Image window, the selected image on the
window is used as the image source. Image size depends on the capture resolution
setting.
(3) Embedding texts and graphics written on the image
(a) Auto Data Display
When the Embed Into Image box in the AUTO Data Display area on the Setup dialog
window - Record tab has been checked, the auto data display is embedded into the
image data when the image is saved. If it is not checked, only the image data is saved.
This setting is also applied for Print, Copy and PCI Transfer commands. If the For
Photograph box is checked, the position of the auto data display in the saved image is
shifted slightly upward to ensure that it is properly framed in photographs. It is
recommended not to check the box if the saved image data will be used on the
computer only.
