If you are scanning the whole two-page spread of the book, make sure you set
"facing pages" to on.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Scanning problem

 

Hey Guys; 

I am trying to scan a book. I am using Open Book 9 and scanning with a
Opticbook. This is what happens when I start the scan. 

1. After placing the book on the scanner bed (book is a small
paperback-trade paperback) 

2. I start the scan with the space bar. 

3. Scanner "completes the scan" and then 

4. The finish product is "page 1 is blank" 

5. I know that text is on the page because my husband is telling me that it
is. I have scanned pages in the "middle" of the book and still I get the
same results. 

6. What am I doing wrong?  

7. I am using the setting that were given out this list by someone (I am not
sure who) but I made a RTF file with the settings on them and also I spoke
to Lori C. about the setting a few weeks back as well as with Larry L. and
the settings that I got from both of them were just about the same. 

Please help *I am pulling out my hair in frustration* 

Thanks, 

Netta
