PaperScan Scanner Software Home Edition

PaperScan is a universal scanning software designed to offer power as well as simplicity of use.

The Home Edition of PaperScan was optimized to conveniently provide powerful yet 'must-have' features at a really affordable price.

While most scanning applications are dedicated to one scanner or one scanning protocol, PaperScan Home Edition allows you to control any scanner, including network scanners (TWAIN or WIA protocols), cameras or acquisition cards. All features are automatically negotiated and handled by PaperScan Home Edition.

PaperScan Home Edition provides flatbed and document feeder support.

Already existing images or PDF files can be imported with PaperScan in order to adjust and enhance their quality with the following functionalities:

-angle rotation

-black and white, grayscale or colour conversion

-colour adjustment (brightness, contrast, saturation, gamma)

-filters to smooth, stretch contrast or median the image

-bitonal filters to remove isolated dots or to dilate/erode characters

-contour, sepia or scanline effects.

For PDF files, PaperScan Home Edition offers read-write encryption support.

PaperScan Home Edition includes image post-processing options such as: quality selection, area selection, image cropping and resizing, image printing and more.

PaperScan displays information on the resolution, size and colour mode of an image.

Acquired or imported files can be easily handled to create multipage or single-page document files.

You can save files in various formats such as PDF, PDF/A, PDF with encryption, TIFF , JPEG, PNG and even JBIG2.

Based on your Windows language settings, PaperScan automatically displays the localized version of the interface, if it exists among PaperScan translated interface versions. Currently, available languages are English and French.
