Usually the defaults work for me very well. Once you press the button to either scan images to new document, you can hear the scanner perform one scan. This I assume is some kind of a preparatory / exploratory thing. It also causes a new window open. If you look at the window, you can see that you are able to adjust certain settings here, like brightness etc, before you press the "scan" button. For ordinary size fonts, the brightness = 300 is ok - that's the default one. But for small fonts, I adjust it to 600. If there are any problems with the scan, a table will be presented to you with the mistakes. I'm not quite sure though how I could correct them. I think for those one would need sight. On the whole, I never feel I would need to make any changes. I'm sorry if I am not much help here. Another tip for those of you who work in multiple languages, is that FineReader can recognise up to 3 languages in one document. This is useful for multi-lingual documents. You have to choose these 3 languages in preferences by checking the boxes.
