The following types of documents must not be scanned:

  • Paper-clipped or stapled documents

  • Documents on which the ink is still wet

  • Documents smaller than A8 size

  • Documents other than paper/plastic card (such as fabric, metal foil and OHP film)

  • Important documents such as certificates and cash vouchers which must not be damaged

  • Documents of non-uniform thickness (such as envelopes or documents with attachments)

  • Wrinkled or curled documents

  • Folded or torn documents

  • Coated paper

  • Carbon paper

  • Carbonless paper

  • Photosensitive paper

  • Perforated documents
