I am trying to scan a document as a PDF. This worked as expected, scanning the whole A4 page; I have since scanned a small item, requiring the image on-screen to be cropped. Now, at my third attempt - scanning a full-size A4 document the scanner will only scan the top left-hand corner of the page. Why? How do I fix this?
