Using scanners


The first stage of any Animo 2.0 production that uses conventional artwork is to get the drawings into the system. To do this, you'll need to use a scanner.

There are a number of different scanners on the market and although they all work in a similar way, the operating details may be slightly different. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with your scanner, and consult the manuals that came with it, before you begin trying to scan drawings into the Animo 2.0 system.

To make the process of scanning in drawings easier, make sure you have followed the instructions in Tips for creating drawings.

Types of scanners
Using manual-feed with a scanner
Using auto-feed with a scanner
Scanning artwork which is longer than the scanner bed
Scanning artwork which is deeper than the scanner bed
