Question

Adobe Scan doesn't have option to take original colour pictures by default.

I use Adobe Scan quite often and it takes way longer than it should beacuse I have to change colour of all pictures to "original" from "auto", it takes time in processing. I prefer original colour over the auto since I take a lot of pictures of notes and auto colour many times is too bright to read all of the text easily.

There should be an option to take pictures in original colour by default, just make an option to take pictures in whatever coloured desired as default.

If such option already exists please let me know.

Thanks!

You can check Profile > Preferences > Default Filter in Adobe Scan and select Original Color if that option is available in your app version. That should save you from changing every page manually. If you need a simple alternative for scanning documents, you could also try https://scannr.net/ and see if it fits your workflow.

Four years later and this still is a PITA -- it makes warm photos look like crappy newsprint photo until you manually switch it back to original color.

Hi there

Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out.

I have tried to reproduce the issue at my end and its working fine and Adobe Scan app is creating scans in the original color of the document by default.

Would you mind sharing the version of the Adobe Scan app and the OS you are using? Tap on the profile icon > About Adobe Scan. Also try updating the app to the latest version available on the App/Play Store and reboot the device once and check.

For self-help and future reference please check the help page https://helpx.adobe.com/mobile-apps/help/adobe-scan-faq.html

Let us know how it goes.

Hi, @Ria Tagra!

I do know about that option but thing is that's post processing and takes quite a lot of extra time when it has to change colour of 20-60 pages.

It'd be great if you could give us option to select a default preset of what colour we want. Say I select "original colour" preset for default option from preferences, then I don't need colour post processing at all.

Thanks!
