starts on the right side. The IRISPen isolates the correct visual information with-
out any help.
The IRISPen software automatically picks up the “central” line, that is the line
directly under or closest to the line guide on the pen scanner. Where the interline
spacing is reduced, the line guide on your pen scanner’s view window helps you
select the correct information.
The scanning height of about 0.4" (1 cm.) explains why you are limited to
character sizes of 22 point: bigger characters are simply cut when you scan
them. The IRISPen reads point sizes of 8 to 22 point (0.11 to 0.31" or 0.28 to
0.78 cm.).
SETTING THE BRIGHTNESS
Furthermore, scan tests are useful to set the brightness correctly. As we al-
ready mentioned, the scan test window displays a black-and-white version of the
scanned image, while the greyscale image window displays the actual scan. We
also know that the IRISPen is the first greyscale pen scanner.
In the Executive version, the scan test window is equipped with advanced
imaging features to adjust the scanning to the color tones of your document. (You
are recommended to keep the greyscale image visible when you’re modifying
these parameters.)
