PaperPort Getting Started Guide  19
Set up your scanner with PaperPort
Before using PaperPort for scanning, your scanner should be 
installed with its own scanner driver software and tested for 
correct functionality. Scanner driver software is not included 
with PaperPort.
Properly installed and correctly functioning scanners are 
immediately available in PaperPort by clicking the Select 
button, and choosing one in the Available Scanners dialog. 
If you are not satisfied for your scan results, you can run the 
PaperPort Scanner Setup Wizard from the Start menu, under 
the program group PaperPort 11.0.
Using Scan Profiles
PaperPort comes with scan profiles optimized for typical scanning tasks. Choose 
Black and White, Grayscale or Color Document; or Color Photograph for best 
results. 
Scan profile panels have the following tabs:
• Profile: displays the currently used scan profile.
• SET: define what enhancements you would like to run automatically.
• Output: set file format and automatically suffixed file names.
• Scan: adjust scan settings: mode, resolution, size, orientation, filter color, 
brightness and contrast
In PaperPort Professional 11, you can also add new profiles, or remove existing 
ones. This edition of the program contains an extra scan profile: Color 
PDF-MRC High Compression. MRC is a technology that lets you make much 
smaller PDF files.
PDF Searchable Image is only available in PaperPort Professional 11, when you also have 
OmniPage installed on your system.
