Using the paper

---

By following a few simple guidelines, you can input drawings into Animo 2.0 clearly first time around:

• It is essential to keep the paper clean. Avoid excessive erasing, smudges, sticky tape and white out. What you scan is what you see, so try to keep your lunch off the drawing!

• Automatic batch feeding accepts paper sizes up to A3. Larger paper, like standard 16 field size will have to be manually scanned, sheet by sheet.

• Panning shots do not require long panning paper. You can specify on which panning peg your drawings are to be placed (i.e. A, B, C, etc.) at the time they are scanned.

• You should pegbar punch all sheets, with an Oxberry standard paper punch (this is because Animo 2.0's auto-alignment function looks for the pegbar holes in the paper).

• Avoid using different paper bonds in the same scene, as they may scan differently.

• You can use reinforcers if you want, but they reduce the number of sheets that can be put into the automatic batch feeder.
