Scan & Crop Several Images from a page

The following is something that I do all the time on my Epson scanner. I would like to do the same thing using the ProScan software on my Brother MFC-L2750DW.

As an example, I would like to prescan a page with 7 images. I would like to select one image at a time, crop and scan it. Then I would like to go back to the same page before I cropped it and crop and save another image, etc. The resulting multipage pdf file would have each of the 7 images on a separate pages. This makes it much easier to read instructions that are originally combined on a single page.

I would rather not have to go back to Acquire and scan the page again 7 times. Is there a way to do this.

Hello Mike,

There is a way to do this. Use the area selection mode as you have been doing however instead of using the "Crop selected area" option, use the "Copy">"Copy selected area to a new page" option to crop your selection to a new page.
This will do what you ask without deleting your originally scanned page.
