Image enhancement profiles automatically apply changes to a flow of images from the Scanning Station or the Application Server. Apply a profile to an image flow in one of the following ways:
  • Assign it to a batch type in the Scanning Station, on the Image Processing tab of the Batch Type Properties dialog box.
  • Apply it automatically when loading input images, on the Image Processing tab of Tools → Options….
  • Assign it to a batch type or an import profile in the Project Setup Station.
The Scanning Station includes two built-in profiles:
  • Photo – Preset editing settings for photos of documents.
  • Scan – Preset editing settings for scanned documents.
