CAN MULTIPLE LINES

You can scan multiple lines at the same time, i.e. within the same
scan. This is particularly useful if you want to capture whole
excerpts of text from books, magazines, etc.
The various lines of text will be buffered, then released with the
click on a pen button.

To read multiple lines:

• In the Application window, select the option Multilines. See:

Basic settings, Scanning mode.

• Scan the various lines one by one. Make sure that each line is

positioned directly in front of the pen's guide line.
After each scanned line, the Status window displays the message
"Press pen button to flush". Go on scanning the next line
immediately.

Important
:
The pen scanning band is 0.41" (10.5mm.) high and covers in
many cases several lines of text. This does not mean that all
these lines are being read. Only one line, the central one, is
picked and recognized by the pen. You must thus scan each line
separately and make sure it is positioned right in the center of the
scanning head.
