6 Book/Sheet/3D Mode

6.1 Book mode

Select this mode when scanning a thick original (books). Selecting this mode
automatically activates the following functions:

Functions automatically activated

Curved text line correction

This function corrects the position of the text on the curved surface near the
center of the book (area between pages) of a thick open book, ensuring that an
undistorted image is made.

Text compression correction

The text at the center of the book (area between pages) of an open book often
looks crowded with little space between characters, when viewed from above,
due to the curved surface. If simply scanned as it is, the text appears
compressed. This function expands the characters accordingly, providing an
image as close as possible to the original form.

NOTE ! When the text is within 5 mm (0.2 inches) from the spine of the book

or the inclination at the center exceeds 50°, proper correction may
not be made.

6.2 Sheet mode
