If all of your photos are the same size, this really speeds up the process. VueScan will remember these settings for all subsequent scans until you change them. O Select each image individually, and manually crop each image so that it is slightly smaller than the actual image. O VueScan will scan all four images, and will divide the scanner into four equal sections Scanning in this way allows you to use your scanner most efficiently, as almost every square inch of scanning area is being used in each scan. Don't worry, you can easily rotate those images afterwards. Note: This will mean that some of your photos are scanned in the "wrong" orientation. O Place your photos as shown above, one in each of the four corners of your scanner (it is OK if they overlap a little bit). This process goes much faster if you have lots of photos that are the same size. When you select Save, VueScan does not rescan, but rather just takes the image files and saves them immediately as four separate files per your crop marks.ĭisclaimer: I do not work for VueScan, nor am I affiliated in any way with VueScan.
#Vuescan multiple photos software#
The reason that the EPSON scan software takes longer is that it does a very quick preview at low resolution, and then scans each of the photos as a separate scanning operation (four individual scans), whereas the VueScan software does the preview scan at 400 dpi and holds the images in memory while you adjust the cropping. VueScan - 15 sec to preview, scan, & save all four photosĮPSON scan software - 1 min 08 sec to preview, scan, & save all four photos
In addition, this process will likely be faster than the process that your scanner vendor's application provides for scanning multiple photos (if it has this capability).įor comparison, I did an informal test using the above photos on my Epson V600 scanner (scanned at 400 dpi):
This makes the scanning process go a lot faster than scanning one photo at a time, especially if you have a lot of photos that are the same size. The individual photos are saved as separate image files. This Instructable shows a simple & efficient way to scan four photos at one time on your scanner using a low-cost ($40) third party application called VueScan.
