Microsoft Store 提供了一个扫描应用程序(Scan app)，您可以使用它在Windows 10中快速扫描文档和图片。当您扫描一张照片或多页时，该应用程序很有用。在这篇文章中，我们将分享如何在Windows 10计算机中打开(Windows 10)扫描应用程序(Scan App)并使用它来正确扫描文档。
如何在 Windows 10 中打开扫描应用程序
在我们开始使用Scan App之前，扫描(Scan App)仪(Scanner)的OEM可能有自己的扫描仪软件(its own scanner software)，它可以帮助您扫描文档。我建议您看一下它，它与Windows Scan App相比可以提供一些额外的功能。
- 打开微软商店
- 在搜索框中键入 Windows扫描。(Scan)
- 出现后，单击“获取”(Get)按钮将其安装到计算机上或打开此链接。(open this link.)
- 安装后， Windows Scan将作为“SCAN”应用程序在“开始”菜单中提供。(Start)
- 单击(Click)它，在Windows 10计算机中打开扫描应用程序。(Scan App)
如果您刚刚连接扫描仪(Scanner)，请确保安装驱动程序。Windows 10 通常会找到它并将其列在Settings > Devices > Printers and Scanners下。确保(Make)其状态为在线；否则，您将无法使用它。
在启动扫描仪应用程序之前，请确保扫描仪已物理插入电源并通过USB插头连接到计算机。启动扫描仪应用程序，它将自动检测扫描仪并列出它。如果您有多个扫描仪，您可以随时在它们之间进行选择。
当应用程序启动时，它只显示扫描仪名称(Scanner Name)和文件(File)类型，其中将保存扫描。在文件类型选项下，单击显示(Show)更多链接顶部显示完整的选项集，其中包括：
- 文件类型：在(File Type:) TIFF、JPEG、PDF、XPS、BMP和OpenXPS之间进行选择(Choose)
- 颜色模式：(Color Mode:)在这里，您可以在彩色(Color)、黑白(Black)和灰度之间进行(White)选择(Greyscale)。
- 分辨率：(Resolution:)值越高，打印质量、保存的文档，当然还有大小就越好。根据您计划使用它的位置和方式，明智地选择。
- 将文件保存到：(Save File to:) 确保(Make)选择此选项，我会说，将其保存到云中。您不仅可以立即与他人分享；你不会失去它。当您切换计算机时，如果它在Dropbox或OneDrive上，您仍然可以通过它们(OneDrive)

如何在Windows 10中扫描文档(Windows 10)
现在您已了解扫描应用程序的所有功能，让我们学习如何使用此应用程序扫描文档或图像。
- 将文档放在扫描仪床上，然后放下盖子。
- 切换到扫描(Scan)应用程序，并配置选项
- 单击(Click)预览(Preview)按钮。确保(Make)每次都查看扫描输出的外观。
- 预览显示后，您可以使用选择或圆形标记来决定要扫描的区域。如果预览不符合您的预期，那么
- 更改颜色模式和 DPI
- 确保放下扫描仪盖
- 使用圆形标记准确标记要扫描的区域
- 如果您打算稍后编辑图像，请将其保存为IMAGE格式。
- 单击(Click)“扫描(Scan)”按钮执行最终扫描。这次您应该看到Scanning 而不是 Previewing 。(Scan)完成后，应用程序顶部会显示一条消息。
就是这样。这是您在Windows 10中扫描文档或图像的方式。虽然扫描(Scan)应用程序是基本的，但它提供了足够的功能，可以让您扫描几乎任何东西。
但是，来自OEM的软件会做得更好，因为它可以提供额外的功能、在多个位置保存的选项等等。例如，我可以将多次扫描保存到一个PDF文件中，这在您扫描包含大量页面的文档时非常有用。因此，请务必从OEM安装扫描仪应用程序并尝试一下。
How to open Scan App in Windows 10 Computer and Scan a document
Microsoft Store offers a Scan app which you can use to scan documents and pictures in Windows 10 quickly. The app is useful when you are scanning one single photo or multiple pages. In this post, we will share how to open the Scan App in Windows 10 computer and use it to scan a document properly.
How to open Scan App in Windows 10
Before we start with the Scan App, the OEM of the Scanner may have its own scanner software, which can help you with scanning a document. I would suggest you have a look at it as well as it can offer some extra features compared to the Windows Scan App.
- Open Microsoft Store
- Type Windows Scan in the search box.
- Once it appears, click on the Get button to install it on the computer or open this link.
- Post-installation, Windows Scan will be available in the Start menu as the “SCAN” app.
- Click on it, to open the Scan App in Windows 10 computer.
If you just connected the Scanner, make sure to install the driver. Windows 10 would usually find it and list it under Settings > Devices > Printers and Scanners. Make sure its status is online; else, you will not be able to use it.
Before launching the scanner app, make sure the scanner is physically plugged into a power source and connected to the computer over the USB plug. Launch the scanner app, and it will automatically detect the scanner and list it. If you have multiple scanners, you can always choose between them.
When the app launches, it only shows Scanner Name and File type in which the scan would be saved. Right under the file type option, click on Show more link top reveal the complete set of options which includes:
- File Type: Choose between TIFF, JPEG, PDF, XPS, BMP, and OpenXPS
- Color Mode: Here, you can choose between Color, Black & White, and Greyscale.
- Resolution: The higher the value, the better would be the quality of the print, saved document, and, of course, the size. Depending on where and how you plan to use it, choose wisely.
- Save File to: Make sure to choose this option, and I would say, save it to the cloud. Not only you can instantly share with someone; you will not lose it. When you switch computers, you can get still across them if it is on Dropbox or OneDrive

How to scan a document in Windows 10
Now that you know all the features of the scan app, let’s learn how to scan a document or image using this app.
- Place a document on the scanner bed, and put down the lid.
- Switch to Scan app, and configure the options
- Click on the Preview button. Make sure to it every time to see how the output of the scan will look like.
- Once the preview shows up, you can use the selection or circle markers to decide the area to scan. If the preview is not as you expected then
- change the color mode and DPI
- make sure the scanner lid was put down
- accurately mark the area to scan using circle markers
- if you plan to edit the image later, save it as an IMAGE format.
- Click on the Scan button to perform a final scan. You should see Scanning instead of Previewing this time. Once complete, a message would show up on top of the app.
That’s it. It is how you scan a document or image in Windows 10. While the Scan app is basic, it offers enough features which allow you to scan almost anything.
However, software from OEM would do a much better job as it can offer extra features, option to save at multiple places, and so on. As an example, I can save multiple scans into a single PDF file, which is excellent when you are scanning a document with numerous pages. So make sure to install the scanner app from the OEM and try out that too.
