ScanCalc is a handy utility for determining the size of scanned images. It works similar to the "New Document" dialog in Adobe Photoshop. You specify the height and width of the original and the percent of enlargement/reduction and ScanCalc will tell you the disk space needed for the scan.

This can be helpful if you're having a service bureau scan some slides for you and you need to know how many removable cartridges to send. It's also useful if you're concerned about image size and want to see the difference between scanning an image at 300 DPI versus 400 DPI.

ScanCalc also functions as a proportional wheel: enter in a new height or width and ScanCalc will show you the percentage of enlargement/reduction. ScanCalc works with several measurement systems, including inches, points, and metric.

Here are some key features of "ScanCalc":
Simple
Handy log for recording multiple measurements
