Introduction
LaserSoft
®
SilverFast
™
Lite is a TWAIN interface program between your
application software and your EPSON
®
Expression
®
800 scanner that lets
you scan images into your software. It is the ideal interface for scanning
photographs on any type of medium: photo paper, positive and negative
transparencies, 35 mm slides and film, even Polaroid
®
media.
SilverFast Lite does more than transfer images from the scanner—it also
lets you:
◗ Preview the image before scanning
◗ Adjust the orientation of the image (such as flip it horizontally or
vertically or rotate it)
◗ Automatically adjust image exposure
◗ Make corrections to the image (such as adjusting brightness, contrast,
and tone quality)
◗ Scan multiple frames, multiple images, and even different types of
originals (color, grayscale, and black and white) at one time
◗ Quickly scan Polaroid photographs (for Spectra
®
or 600 size film) to
automatically size the image and adjust the exposure
◗ Scan clear newsprint or magazine images with a Descreening filter to
eliminate line screens
If you’re scanning
documents with OCR
(optical character
recognition)
applications, you
should use EPSON
TWAIN Pro instead of
SilverFast Lite for the
best results. See the
electronic
EPSON
TWAIN Pro User’s
Guide for instructions.
