help ONYX Book Scanner FAQ
How does the ONYX Book Scanner protect a book's spine?
It uses a cradle that supports bound material while pages are captured, so the book does not need to be forced flat. That makes it better suited to fragile, valuable, or tightly bound books than a standard flatbed scanner.
What can the ONYX Book Scanner digitize?
It is designed for books and other bound materials, including pages containing text and images. The cradle approach is useful for academic books, archives, and reference collections that should not be damaged by scanning.
Is the ONYX Book Scanner a normal flatbed scanner?
No. Its defining feature is the book cradle and capture setup for bound volumes, rather than a single flat glass surface intended for loose sheets.
Who would benefit most from an ONYX Book Scanner?
Researchers, libraries, students, and archives can use it when preserving the book matters as much as capturing the page. It is especially useful when a binding cannot safely be pressed flat.
