A stupid question I'm sure, but does this type of software work on scanned non digital photos? Thank you.

I scanned an interview old photo that was taken in the 50's. I then imported to Lightroom and worked on the picture to clean it up. It worked wonderfully!

I just tried importing with Doxie docs and pics scanned from other devices. It would not do this task. Doxie gave me the error message that these items were not scanned by Doxie. This is a great scanner but will not do what yu ask. I would contact Doxie to see if there is a workaround.

Thanks SO much, Liberty! I've been trying to find a scanner to preserve old photos digitally, but several are larger than 8.5x11", i.e. 11x14", so I need a bit larger glass to fit them. I expected this to be easy...not so! My old scanner is that big, but it only plugs into an old-style desktop computer, not USB2 laptop, and now I am wondering if I can find a plug adapter so I can use the old scanner for the big photos. Likely the scanner software won't recognize XP!

I think it does. I have not used it much on Jpg. I have used it on pdf and even here it picks up some photos in pdf. I have been more interested in articles and text. interested in articles and text so at this time I cant verify

It doesn't do well with glossy paper/photos. I tried to scan about 50 photos and it would start to skip and make some interesting images. IMHO, you'd want a flatbed scanner for best results.

I do not understand the question, but the (driver) software that includes the scanner works great. I have worked with photographs, text and documents and it has gone well. I use it for the house.

Only the simplest of pictures can be digitized. If you have more than a few colors, it won't work. I digitized a silhouette which was only one color and it did well. A much more sophisticated program could digitize a detailed photo, but not this one. But, I will say this is a good program to begin with. I wrote a long review if you can find it a few months ago.

Yes. Jpegs for photos and pdfs for documents. Once you tell the scanner you're scanning photos, it auto"magically" knows you want jpegs.

YES & YES and it does a reasonably good job, too. I mainly use the Scan to PDF & JPEG options and have been really pleased with the results. Scanning is slow, but for a portable unit is does many things well and there have to be a few sacrifices for the portability sake. Keep in mind that it runs just fine on battery mode too... just can not go wrong with this unit !!!

Yes. A bit difficult with scanning. I have a Mac and I use IPhoto. Not compatible I guess.

Yes, I have scanned documents with it as well. It does not convert them to a PDF file though.

Yes, "guruofvinyl" is correct. There is a setting in the software to scan negatives. It's quite effective.

Hi Bee Sun, It works on any photo, even it is old photo, it will picks up the image digitally. Thanks.

I bought the unit but haven't used it as yet. My friends tell me that they can scan almost anything, including old photos that are bent. Should do checks just fine.

I did all of my scans as jpegs so they were very accurate. If you wanted something that you could edit, I really don't know the answer. One thing to consider... I used the scanner holder that kept it steady while scanning. This made a big difference. Scanning without the holder, everything was out of proportion and not worth doing.

I just recently traded up to a HP Officejet, but my Epson served me well for years and yes, it will on default save your scanned photo as a JPG. You can also save it as a TIFF if you want to.

Yes, of course. It scans anything in pdf format which you can then convert to a jpeg in the Scansnap program.
