root name appended by a number indicating the exposure sequence. The final, full
exposure will have the root name only, with no exposure number.
G.6.c Save
Auto Save After Scan
To automatically save any image you create, click on the Auto Save After Scan
checkbox.
Note: In PDQuest, this option is preselected and cannot be turned off. All images must
be automatically saved when acquired.
With this checkbox selected, when you click on Acquire or Live Acquire, a Save As
dialog box will open asking you to specify a file name and location for the image you
are about to create. The scan will begin when you click on the Save button.
Note that in Live Acquire mode you can save your intermediate exposures by
selecting Auto Save After Scan and then Save All Intermediate Images.
Make Backup Copy
You can automatically create a backup copy of any scan you create. To do so, first
select Auto Save After Scan (see above), then select the Make Backup Copy
checkbox.
With this checkbox selected, when you save a scan, a backup copy will be placed in
the same directory as the scanned image. Windows backup files will have an “.sbk”
extension. Macintosh backup files will have the word “backup” after the file name.
This backup copy will be read-only, which means that you cannot make changes to it.
You can open it like a normal file, but you must save it under a different file name
before editing the image or performing analysis.
G.6.d Imaging Area Size
The imaging area is the area of the sample that is captured by the camera and
displayed in the scan window. To specify the size of this area, enter a dimension in the
appropriate field under Imaging Area.
