Adding an Image from a PDF file

To add an image from a PDF click the Image from a PDF File link, and then browse to the PDF file with the image. Selecting the file will bring up the options of images to import. There must be an image in the PDF file for this to work. Note that VSys can't read all images from all PDF files; this tool is intended to help when using scanners which produce PDF files instead of JPEG or other image files.

Adding an Image from a Scanner or Camera

Click the Image from scanner/camera link and the window that opens will be specific to your scanner. Refer to the documentation that comes with your specific scanner for further instructions.

Selecting a Scanner/Camera

  1. Click the Select scanner/camera link and the Select Source window opens, allowing you to select the scanner or camera device to be used when scanning images.
  2. Click the device you want then click the Select button.

The images you add must be in JPEG format only.

Print

Use the checkboxes at the front of the comments to select a comment to print. Choose which aspects of the comment from the menu (Comments, Comments (only those with images), Comments including images or Comments full page images).

Print all

Choose Print All to print all comments for a volunteer, not just the ones you have selected.
