FreeOffice: Scanning pictures directly into a document is not included in SoftMaker FreeOffice.
Note: Scanning pictures directly into a document is possible only with the Windows version of PlanMaker.
With PlanMaker for Windows, you can scan originals directly into a document. You must have connected a scanner to your computer and installed the corresponding software.
To scan something into the current document, proceed as follows:
1. | Turn on the scanner and insert the original that is to be scanned. |
2. | On the ribbon tab Insert | group Objects | Picture frame , click on the arrow of the icon and select the entry From scanner from the dropdown menu. |
PlanMaker now enables your scanner's software. Make the desired settings (see scanner manual) and start the scanning process. When this is complete, the scanned result will appear as a picture in the PlanMaker document.
Selecting another source
If several scanners are connected to your PC, you can use the command Insert | Picture frame | Select source to decide from which of these sources you want to scan when you use the command Insert | Picture frame | From scanner.
