Scanning Station can process images to improve quality or prepare them for editing, either automatically when images are loaded or manually after import. Configure these parameters in two places:
  • For a batch type — on the Image Processing tab of the Batch Type Properties dialog box.
  • For individual batches — on the Image Processing tab of the Options dialog box.
Automatic image processing can noticeably slow down image loading.

Available options

  • Despeckle — removes speckles that occur when scanning medium- or low-quality documents.
  • Convert full-color and grayscale images to black-and-white — converts images to black-and-white.
  • Rotate images by — rotates images 90° clockwise, 90° counter-clockwise, or 180°.
  • Deskewcorrects image skew automatically, using separators, black squares, or both.
  • Use Image Enhancement Profile — applies a preconfigured processing profile to input images.

Restore the original image

If you’re not happy with the results of automatic or manual processing, right-click the page and choose Back to Source Image to revert — no rescan needed. The option only appears if the image has been changed.

Use scripts to process images

You can process images programmatically. For example, to flip the first selected page horizontally:
IWorkspaceItem page = Workspace.Selection[0];
page.FlipHorizontal();
To save the original image rather than a processed copy, configure an IImageSavingOptions instance with ColorType, Format, and UseRawImage = true, then call:
IWorkspaceItem.SaveAs(fileName: string, [optional] options: IImageSavingOptions)
