help Fujitsu ScanSnap iBook FAQ
Can the Fujitsu ScanSnap iBook scan both pages of an open book at the same time?
Yes, the ScanSnap iBook features dual overhead cameras that capture both the left and right pages of an open book simultaneously. This dual-scan capability effectively halves the amount of time it takes to digitize large, bulky volumes.
Does the Fujitsu ScanSnap iBook automatically flatten curved pages during the scanning process?
Yes, the included ScanSnap software automatically flattens the curved text typically found near the spine of a thick book. The software also crops out fingers or thumbs if they accidentally appear in the camera's view.
What file formats does the Fujitsu ScanSnap iBook support for saving documents?
The scanner can output high-resolution files in several formats, including searchable PDF, JPEG, and TIFF. The built-in OCR (Optical Character Recognition) ensures that scanned text can be highlighted and searched digitally.
Does the Fujitsu ScanSnap iBook have an automated page-turning feature?
No, unlike highly specialized robotic library scanners, the ScanSnap iBook requires the user to manually turn the pages of the book. However, the operator can trigger a new scan instantly using a foot pedal or a push-button without stepping away from the device.
