Photomyne has outstanding performance but its automatic image enhancement may not always be desired. Smartphones and tablets offer convenience, but extracted individual images from apps may lack resolution when used with common devices. RansenScan appears to require a non-patterned uniform background to individual photos and is not suitable for album pages or camera images. If you are keen to optimise processing on images of this type, different products should be evaluated. If you are scanning album pages or using camera images containing multiple photos, different products have widely differing performances on different images. Autosplitter may not detect all individual photos. ScanSpeeder detects photos well for uniform backgrounds, but may not perform de-skewing accurately. RansenScan gives is also very accurate, but processing may be slow.

If you are placing individual photos on a scanner, Caption Pro (for Windows or Mac) is accurate for automatic splitting, has excellent captioning facilities, and is well-suited to large projects.

#Nitro logic scanspeeder v1.6 manual#

Very basic: no captioning, skew correction, or manual frame definition, but may be able to access scanners that other applications cannot.

The best option for Mac Users prepared to deal with GIMP. Reasonable performance but installation and GIMP interface daunting. Works well with photographs of album pages as well as scanned images.ДЇree, multi-platform but poor performance. Simple interface but best suited to tech-savvy users.Дirect access to flatbed scanners, optional manual control, highly robust splitting algorithm, and simple interface. Good for individual photos placed on the scanner but not for camera images or scanned album pages. Optional manual control of splitting, direct scanner access, single-line captions. Similar capability to Caption Pro but without face recognition. A Summary of the Applications ReviewedДЄccess via a scanner as well as from files, optional manual splitting controls, good performance with individual photos, excellent captioning, face recognition. As most desktop applications are built for use with flatbed scanners, they will not have the perspective correction.ДЄll applications provide guidance on the scanning process, the major point being to keep individual photos well separated. A reflective transparent layer to protect photographs from handling may also be present.ДЄ high-resolution digital camera may also be used to create files which are then processed by a desktop application. If the photos are on a photo album page, the process is more difficult as photo albums commonly have a patterned background, and the pages may be yellowed around the edges, making the background non-uniform and the extraction process more difficult. Good results are usually obtained in this way as the background to the multiple photos is highly uniform and easily distinguished from the photo content, provided the photos are well-separated.

Individual hard-copy prints can be placed on the scanner bed and the scanner directly accessed from image splitting software.

Small A4 flatbed scanners are readily available, and may even be incorporated into multi-function devices mainly used for printing.

The two methods and many other issues are discussed in detail on Ken Watson's excellent website All About Digital Photos. Either a scanner or a camera can be used for creating digital images from existing physical images.
