Prefs | Beep when done

Enabling this option causes a sound to be played on the computer's speakers when

scanning completes. This is sometimes useful to alert you at the end of a long- running

scan. On Windows, this is the "Default sound" in the "Sounds and Multimedia" control

panel. On Linux and Mac OS X, this is a simple beep.

This option is not set by default.

Prefs | Beep when auto eject

Enabling this option causes a sound to be played on the computer's speakers when

auto ejecting.

This is sometimes useful to alert you at the end of a long- running preview or scan. On

Windows, this is the "Default sound" in the "Sounds and Multimedia" control panel. On

Linux and Mac OS X, this is a simple beep.

This option is not set by default.

Advanced Option: This option is always displayed.

Prefs | Use temp file name

When TIFF, JPEG or PDF files are being written, but haven't yet been closed, this

option instructs VueScan to use file names with a .tmp at the end. When the file is

closed, the file is renamed to remove the .tmp.

This allows programs that monitor a directory for files to know when the TIFF, JPEG or

PDF files are ready for further processing.
