Figure 3-1. Consumer-grade flatbed scanners are generally pretty slow, so it's a huge timesaver to
scan four or even six photos at a time, since you can go do something else while the scanner works
on the images. Elements can then automatically separate and straighten the individual photos
thanks to the Divide Scanned Photos command. Sometimes it pays to be crooked, and this is one of
those situations. Divide Scanned Photos works best when your photos are fairly askew, as shown
here, so don't waste time trying to be precise when placing them on the scanner.
