AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTING A PICTURE
Use PaperPort’s AutoFix Picture command to automatically improve the
brightness, contrast, color, and tint of a color picture. The PaperPort
software uses an internal process that analyzes a picture and fixes what’s
wrong. For example, if you take a photograph of a red sports car, scan it
and notice that the color of the scanned picture is not true red, you can
use AutoFix to adjust the color.
AutoFix works best with 24-bit true color images. If you use AutoFix with
a GIF file (8 bit), it will probably worsen the image. If want to use
Autofix with an 8-bit image, first convert the image to a 24-bit color
image using another image editing application or by rescanning the color
image using the Storing Photos mode.
To automatically adjust a picture:
1. Display the picture in the Page Viewer.
2. From the Page menu, choose AutoFix Picture. A progress dialog box
appears as Autofix adjusts the picture.
ADJUSTING A PICTURE YOURSELF
The Adjust Picture command is similar to the Picture Wizard in that you
control settings, such as color and tint. However, you make all changes on
one screen and without any instructions from the PaperPort software.
You make adjustments by using an Adjustment bar and by selecting one
or more of the sample pictures, multiple times. For example, if the photos
of your prize-winning flowers don’t appear as vibrant as you like, or the
contrast between the leaves and petals is not quite right, you can enhance
the color and adjust the contrast to make the picture truly representative
and as beautiful as the live flowers.
At any time during the adjustment, you can click the Revert button or
select the original picture in the upper-right corner of the screen to return
to the original picture. You can also click the Undo Last button to undo
the last adjustment.
