63. What does the Binarise image enhancement do?
Binarisation is the process of converting a colour or graysale image into a black and white image.
This functionality is exposed in several places in EzeScan as follows:
- On the Job Admin form Image Enhancement tab, there is an 'Auto Binarise' option. When a job containing coloured pages is imported or scanned, each page is analysed to see whether it is a black and white image or a colour image. Images that contain only black and white are then converted from colour into black and white. Images that are colour will remain as colour.
- On the Thumbnail Viewer Menu there is an 'Binarise (Auto Detection)' option. When a job containing coloured pages is displayed in the viewer, each page is analysed to see whether it is a black and white image or a colour image. Images that contain only black and white are then converted from colour into black and white. Images that are colour will remain as colour.
- On the Image Viewer Menu there is an 'Binarise (Auto Detection) option. When a job containing coloured pages is displayed in the viewer, the current page is analysed to see whether it is a black and white image or a colour image. If the current page contains only black and white it is converted from colour into black and white. Pages that are colour will remain as colour.
- On the Thumbnail Viewer Menu there is an 'Binarise (Force To BW)' option. When a job containing coloured pages is displayed in the viewer, each colour page is converted from colour into black and white.
- On the Image Viewer Menu there is an 'Binarise (Force To BW)' option. The current page is converted from colour into black and white.
