About scanning

Elements Organizer connects to your scanner so that you can get scanned images of your photos, negatives, and slides. You can get images from

scanners in two ways:

Use the scanner driver plug-in module that came with your scanner. This software is either compatible with Elements Organizer 11 or uses

the TWAIN® interface to scan and open images directly in Elements Organizer 11.

Note: The TWAIN manager is supported only on Windows.

Use the standalone scanning software that came with your scanner to scan and save your images. You can then bring the images into

Elements Organizer in the following ways:

Click Import. Select From Scanner.

Select File > Get Photos And Videos > From Scanner.

Tip: In Windows® XP, Windows® Vista, and Windows® 7, you can set preferences so that Elements Organizer starts as soon as your computer

detects that your scanner is attached. See Windows Help for more information.

Get photos from scanners

Before you try to scan and open your photos in Elements Organizer, make sure that you’ve installed all the software that came with your scanner.

Carefully read any documentation that came with your scanner to make sure that it’s connected properly to your computer.

1. Make sure that your scanner is connected and switched on.

2. In Elements Organizer, do one of the following:

Click Import. Select From Scanner.

Select File > Get Photos And Videos > From Scanner.

3. In the Get Photos From Scanner dialog box, choose the name of the scanner from the Scanner menu.

If you get a None Detected message in the Scanner list, make sure that the scanner is on and properly connected to your computer.

4. Click Browse to select a location for saving the photos.

5. Choose a file format from the Save As menu. JPEG, the default format, is usually the best choice. If you choose JPEG, drag the Quality

slider to to increase or decrease the quality of the scan. The higher the quality, the larger the file size.
