Changing the output type
1
Create a selection area (page
58
).
2
From the
Output Type
menu, choose an output type
for the image of the picture you scanned.
Make your output type choice based on:
•
whether the image will be displayed on a monitor
or printed in hardcopy
•
how many colors you want in the final scan
•
file size
After you select an output type from the
Output Type
menu:
•
you will see the image change in the preview area
•
the new output type displays in the info bar
•
the new image size displays in the status bar
•
a new sharpening level may appear in the
Sharpen
Level
tool
•
a new value may appear in the
Output Resolution
tool
For best results with images that will be used on
256-color display monitors, do not use the
256 Color
Optimized Palette
output type.
When an optimized palette is used in an image:
■
that palette is unique to that image and the
unique palette colors are applied to the window
that is displaying the image
■
colors in other windows that are displayed at the
same time will be corrupted, because those other
windows use a standard, system palette
■
the window displaying the image with the
optimized palette will be temporarily rendered
with fewer colors when focus changes to a
different window
