Anne: I'm no expert with scanner software. With the Cannon after they are scanned, they end up in my Picture folder, each separate. They are in their own folder inside the picture folder, and however many you scan in one day are all in the same folder. The next day, they appear in another separate folder, regardless if you scan one or two hundred.
To crop the scanned pictures, I usually move them over to Photoshop. When I am finished fooling with them in Photoshop, I can put them anywhere I want, or send them out via email. But the icons stay the same while they are in my computer, unless I turn the photo 90 degrees.

However three of the thumbnails are horizontal and five are vertical; also five of the icons are vertical and one is horizontal. So that's not the answer in my case. I just had a thought that maybe the ones where I changed the crop ended up as icons, but nope that didn't hold up either. Weird. With your Canon scanner, if you do a batch, do all 12 slides scan at a time and end up as 12 separate files? Supposdly with VueScan (version 8.5, the latest) you should get all to scan at once and be able to crop each individually and end up with separate files. I think. I can't get all to scan at once, only one. I know it will be slow going but hoped I could at least cut out switching slides with each scan. Thanks for your suggestion on the icons. Must keep working on this mysterious computer thing. Anne On Jan 14, 2009, at Jan 14, 2009 3:26 PM, Neal Hammon wrote: > Anne: > > I have a different type of scanner, a Cannon 8800f.
