ABSTRACT:
An improved scanning device, such as a Multi-Function Peripheral (“MFP”), and corresponding host system allow a user to scan images for inclusion in a document having pre-defined fields or areas for accepting such scanned images. An electronic form template or parameters for the template are stored in the memory of the MFP or downloaded to the MFP by a host computer. When scanned images are to be inserted into the template, the MFP can access the template or its parameters from memory and ascertain the size and shape of the pre-defined field into which the scanned image must fit. The MFP can then automatically scan the image at an appropriate resolution, size and shape to fit the form template for which it is intended.
