Creating a Double-Page Spread Image by Merging Two Scanned Images (Mac OS)
Merge two scanned images to create a single double-page spread image in [Merge Pages] in ScanSnap Home.
Only the images of documents that you scanned with the ScanSnap can be edited.
The following combinations of images can be merged:
Selecting two content data records, each of which contains a single-page image in a PDF format
Selecting two content data records, each of which contains a single-file image in a JPEG format
In addition, to create a double-page spread image, the two scanned images that you want to merge must meet the following conditions.
The size and orientation of both images are the same
The size of each image does not exceed the criteria below
When merged vertically: a horizontal size of 305 mm and a vertical size of 440 mm
When merged horizontally: a horizontal size of 440 mm and a vertical size of 305 mm
[Merge Pages] is available when content data records are selected under the following conditions.
Selecting a folder under the [Mac] folder in the folder list view of the main window
Note that [Merge Pages] is not available when [Document type], [Tag], or [Scan history] is selected in the folder list view.
Not searching for content data records in the search bar on the toolbar
Selecting two content data records of the same document type
After two images are merged together, a maximum allowable size for a merged image is 440 × 602 mm.
If fingers are captured in the images, fill in the captured finger areas with Book Image Viewer before you create a double-page spread image.
You cannot merge images in PDF format which are protected with security settings such as a password even if they are scanned with the ScanSnap.
Clear the security settings on a PDF editing software such as Kofax Power PDF Standard for Mac.
Clear the security settings on a PDF editing software such as Kofax Power PDF Standard for Mac or Nuance Power PDF Standard for Mac.

If another software is used to edit an image in a PDF format, it might not be possible to create a double-page spread image.
If text information is embedded in the selected image in a PDF format, the created double-page spread image will not contain the text information from the original image.
When embedding text information onto a double-page spread image that you created for a second time, refer to Converting Content Data Records into Searchable Ones.
