Scanning in style
Just 38mm thick, the extraordinarily slender CanoScan LiDE 25 is the obvious
choice for the uncluttered desk. Because of LiDE technology's tiny appetite for
power, it does not require any clumsy power cords - a single USB cable
connected to your computer is the only lead you'll ever need.
Despite its diminutive size, the LiDE 25 is big on resolution. Whether you are
scanning documents or photos, the 1200 x 2400dpi¹ and 48 bit colour depth
specification accurately reproduces every fine detail and subtle shade. Your
pin sharp results will be suitable for enlargements and post-scan image
editing.
Straight to PDF
A 'Scan to PDF' function scans documents straight to PDF (Portable Document
Format), speeding up your work flow and doing away with the need for extra
conversion software. A floating palette of PDF pages is created, which can be
arranged or ordered at will. Text is automatically embedded in PDF files at
time of scanning, allowing editing and searching.
Because not everything you need to scan comes in a convenient size, the LiDE 25
incorporates an innovative double hinged Z-lid. The lid keeps an even pressure
on whatever you place on the glass, making it ideal for scanning thick
documents, magazines and books - even small packages.
Canon's QARE Level 3 is your on-board photo print correction system. Dust and
scratches are automatically detected and corrected, saving hours of manual
retouching. Faded colour, excessive graininess and poor exposure can also be
corrected.
Multiple photos in one scan
LiDE 25's fast and convenient Multi-Photo Mode² creates individual
automatically cropped files from a single scan pass of up to 10 separate
photos, business cards or other originals. It even de-skews images
automatically, saving precious time that would otherwise be spent carefully
aligning photos on the glass prior to scanning.
Software supplied includes ArcSoft PhotoStudio image editing and OmniPage SE
OCR. To help keep you organised, CanoScan Toolbox sits always-at-the-ready on
your desktop, allowing you to customise the three EZ-buttons for common
functions, such as copying, scanning direct to e-mail and straight to PDF.
