===Scanning===
Scanning is accomplished with the use of a scanner and scanning software. An image editing program like Photoshop or Preview is useful afterward to crop, resize and adjust your image.

===Using Adobe Acrobat===

#Place your document face down in the scanner, aligning the top-right corner of the document with the arrow. 
#Select the Start Menu and search for “Adobe Acrobat” 
#In the upper left-hand corner, select '''File''', the '''Create''' menu, highlight '''PDF from Scanner''' and select your color mode from the dropdown menu. 
#A dialogue box will open up prompting you to select a device. From the Scanner dropdown menu select '''GT-S630 (ICA) or Epson Perfection V33/V330'''. 
#If you are scanning multiple pages, check the box next to '''“Prompt to scan more pages.”''' 
#'''Press "scan"''' and a dialogue box will appear for you to press "Scan" in the '''bottom right corner'''.
#When finished, select '''File''' from the toolbar menu and save your file. 
===Using Image Capture:===
# Place your document face down in the scanner, aligning the top-right corner of the document with the arrow.
# Launch '''Image Capture''' from the Applications folder.
# Drag the boundary box around the portion of the image you want to capture
# Set '''resolution''' (see below).
# Set the '''Format''' to '''TIFF''' (this is an uncompressed image file format)
# Note the '''Scan to''' location. This is where your file will be saved. You can change this.
#Click the '''Scan''' button.

Note: you may need to save your scanned file to the network space on Orca then move to another computer to continue editing in Photoshop or Preview.

Please ask the students at the front desk of the Computer Center for assistance if you have any questions.
 

===At what resolution should I scan?===
Set the scan resolution at double what your final image’s resolution will be.

{| class="wikitable" border="1"

resolution the better the enlarged image will look. Experiment to get the best
results!
