Kodak Imaging is a graphic utility for acquiring and/or processing scanned documents, originally bundled with Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imaging_for_Windows (If you still trust Wikipedia!)

However there are (were) also "Professional Editions", and there are two I know of, and that are available on archive.org:

Version 1: https://archive.org/details/ImagingforW ... nalEdition ( not tested since there is a version 2 !!!! )
Version 2.6: https://archive.org/details/kodak-imaging-pro.-2.6 (Tested: Works fine with Win 10. For installing the program, follow the instructions on the web site.
Also, as a precaution, save the registry BEFORE installing the software, since the cutoff date is saved in a registry key(s) ... which one(s) I don't know, but I am sure there are tools available at the TPFC that can determine which registry keys are accessed when Kodak Imaging starts in order to verify that the trial version is still valid, and this makes the app NOT PORTABLE.

The app implements useful tools for processing scanned documents:
Cropping tool, Deskew, OCR, Basic Editing, etc.
It supports common graphic formats: BMP, JPG (several), Multipage TIF, etc.

I did some research to see if a current commercial version was available. I saw a version 2.8 very similar (identical?) to v.2.6 in terms of graphic tools as far as I can see from the screen shots, and the only additions are tools for coordinating the workflow.
