FilmGet FS User’s Guide
When using an application program that is not 42-bit color or 14-bit grayscale compatible, you cannot scan in 
the [42-Bit Color] or [14-Bit Grayscale] modes. Also, the program may ‘hang’ or only the first image may be 
scanned if you attempt to scan batches of images from an application program that does not support batch 
scanning. Please check the specifications for your application program before attempting batch scanning.

You can set the scan settings independently for each frame which has a preview image.
If you have made a thumbnail scan, you can set the same...

Image Width and Height
The image width and height settings determine the size at which an image will be reproduced when 
it is output to a printer or displayed on a monitor.
The scan settings would require considerable time and effort to set correctly if you had to manually 
set the input resolution, output resolution, and image width and height to achieve a particular result. 
Fortunately, FilmGet FS simplifies this process by providing...

Example with the Input Resolution Changed from 500 to 1000 dpi
An input resolution of 1000 dpi signifies that one linear inch of the scanned image contains 
1000 dots (= pixels). Since the number of dots has...
