Manual scanning parameters • Overview

Before carrying out a final scan, you need to consider a number of parameters. Most of them are

accessed via the Sc

an Setup window and some via the color tool icons in the tool bar.

• Some parameters are typically set for each image individually:

• For most of the others, you will probably use standard settings that are remembered by Color-

Quartet and rarely need to be changed.

• To work with an image, double-click inside its crop frame in the Pr

eview window or on its

name in the Jobs window.

• IMPORTANT: always choose the desired CMYK Pr

oﬁle or RGB Proﬁle from the Scan Setup win-

dow before starting to make any color changes on the image.
