BOKU learn Offline-Test

This profile basically equates to the previously described profile "Scan To Home".

The difference is in the pre-settings which are especially coordinated for the BOKUlearn service "Offline-Test". It is defined in the following way:

  • resolution: 200dpi
  • color: gray shades
  • scanning only one page per sheet
  • producing an individual file for every page
  • file format: jpeg
  • predefined file name: Offline-Test_<Datum>_<Zeit>_#

Approach

  • select "BOKU learn Offline-Test" 
  • place the pile of filled tests in the automatic feeder (printed side on top)
  • press the scan button
  • and off you go ...

For each scanned page an individual file with the above mentioned name is generated in your home folder. The sign # is replaced by a consecutive number.
