Don't know about you, but I usually press the button and get the image. Sometimes I use PDF to scan multiple pages into one document, sometimes I scan in PNG or JPG and create a PDF out of them. As a user I do not want to spend time for correction. Put the image in the scanner the way you want it to be scanned, select the options on software side and just press a button.
