and backgrounds on the document are compressed separately. In order to do this,
the file size of the document that mostly consists of text characters becomes smaller
while keeping the quality of the characters as they are.
However, note the following:
z Photographs or pictures are recognized as background and compressed at a high
rate, causing degradation in the scanned image.
z Thus, this mode is not appropriate for scanning photographs or other graphical
materials.

created PDF file.
