What is ScanWizard Pro?

ScanWizard Pro (version 6.0 or later) is an advanced scanner controller program that

is designed and engineered to provides many powerful, professional-level features

for scanning with Microtek ScanMaker and Artix scanners.

One important feature of ScanWizard Pro is that it lets you work in the LCH color

space, which is based on the LCH (Luminance, Chroma, Hue) model of colors. The

LCH model is a more intuitive way of editing and working with colors because it

defines colors the way we understand them -- based on the properties of brightness

(how light or dark a color is), saturation (how rich or dull a color is), and hue (“red” as

opposed to “blue”).

Another important function of ScanWizard Pro is the batch scan feature, a separate

but integrated program that lets you create and manipulate specific “contexts” or

batches of jobs. With Batch Scanning, you can lay out your jobs beforehand, make

adjustments to each scan, then start the scan when you are ready. The result? A

tremendously improved workflow and savings in time, with the additional advantage

of being able to call up the various “contexts” or batch jobs when required.

A Powerful New Software

With ScanWizard Pro, you can achieve a new level of efficiency in scanning. The

many powerful tools of the program work together to help you obtain the superior

color images you need, as well as provide you with the flexibility to adjust or improve

the images as needed.

And as you become increasingly familiar with the program, you will see how

ScanWizard can open up a whole new vista for organizing your workflow and

boosting your scanning productivity in as many ways as your creative imagination

willallow.

About this Users Guide

This manual provides basic information on the program and sketches out a variety of

scenarios that illustrate ScanWizard’s versatility and how best to use the program for

specific scanning tasks with applicable Microtek scanner.

Reference Guide included in your documentation package.

Getting Started 2-1

English

This ScanWizard Pro operates in two operating modes, Scan and Batch modes:

1. The Scanmode (or scan-to-application) “acquires” ScanWizard Pro from an

image-editing software program such as the Adobe Photoshop. The output

images are scanned and directly delivered (individually or in batches) to your

image editing software for further processing.

2. The Batch mode (or scan-to-file) launches the ScanWizard Pro from desktop

program icon or Windows Start menu. The output images are scanned and saved

to files individually or in batches.

Using the Scan Mode

To operate ScanWizard Pro in the Scan mode, launch the image-editing software (e.g.

Photoshop) of your choice. When the software program launches, go to the File

menu, and choose the Import or Acquire command, depending on the software you

are using (see sample menu from Photoshop below). This will automatically launch

ScanWizard Pro, and the four major windows that form the interface of ScanWizard

Pro will appear on your screen.

Using the Batch Mode

The Batch mode of operating ScanWizard Pro allows you to setup scan jobs

individually or in “batches” and then start the scanning and save-to-file processes

when you are ready to do so with a simple click of the Batch button.

To operate ScanWizard Pro in stand-alone Batch mode, click on the ScanWizard Pro

program icon on your desktop or go to the Start menu and simply follow the steps as

illustrated below.
