Black/White settings consist of:
• Scanner Options
• Postprocessing
Scanner Options
Note: The Scanner options in black
and white mode are scanner
dependent. All settings in this filter
are transmitted to the scanner,
where they are processed. The
software is just the front end.
Therefore, some settings may be
not described; some settings may
not be available.
 Original – Choose from Line, Line/Photo or Name
 Auto Threshold - When this option is activated, the scanner reads gray tones as follows:
gray tones under the threshold turn to 0 (black), while all other gray tones turn to 1
(white). This mode suits lineart best. It should not be applied to photographs.
We recommend an ink limit of 100% in this mode
 Background Removal - Used to tune background contrast (e.g. in order to further fine-
tune text visibility) you may additionally reduce or improve the white to grey-values. The
higher the clipping value, the brighter and whiter the image’s most white elements will
become.
 Sharpness – Used to sharpen the edge and enhance outlines. Use values from 0 to 4 with
4 being the most sharp.
 Despeckle – Removes dots based on scanner hardware settings.
