FastScan Description

Scanning documents is a fairly simple job that can be carried out without too much effort using the default tools provided with the operating system; but with some third-party utilities the operation seems to complete faster because of a better organized interface or easier access to the necessary settings.Installation and interfaceFastScan fits the bill perfectly because it was created to provide users a simpler way to scan files and save them in a suitable format. In order to enjoy the functionality of the application it needs to be installed on the system, a procedure that is neither time consuming nor complicated; everything completes less than half a minute and just a couple of clicks after initiation. The minimalist interface does not have room for anything else except the options absolutely necessary for completing the task. There is a preview window that allows checking the scanned image and a list of options for ulterior handling of the result. FunctionalityExcept for making it fit the window there are no other adjustments that can be made. As far as the options available for the resulting file, the application provides the possibility to save it to the clipboard, printing it or saving it to an image format. FastScan can save the file in the following picture formats: GIF, BMP, JPG, PCX or TIF. ConclusionThe application is quite old but continues to function properly in the modern Windows environment. It is straightforward and quite efficient if you need a simple way to transfer the images from the scanner to one of the supported picture formats.
