Text and Graphical Scanning
The ITS Support Center has two color scanners that can be used to scan graphics or text (OCR). Graphics can be saved in a variety of formats, including the .gif and .jpg formats used for web pages. In addition, the scanners are equipped with OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software. This allows the scanners to read printed text and save it in a variety of file formats (including Microsoft Word). Support Center staff can show you how to operate the scanner in just a few minutes. Then, you can complete your scanning projects yourself (during open hours only).
Color scanners are also available in the following GCA Computer Labs:
6 Wing Technology Center
153 Murphy Library
202 C. Wimberly Hall
