Use the best drivers for your scanner

Rotate, crop, and rearrange images
- Drag and drop your pages into whatever order you like. Interleave pages for manual duplex scanning. Rotate your pages by hand or automatically deskew to the right angle. Use image editing tools to crop or change brightness and contrast.
