ILOHVL]H
The number of bytes in a file. File size of scanned images is
determined by resolution, file type, output type, and scaling. To reduce
the file size of photographs, for example, you could decrease bit depth
or resolution.

The actual image, defined by the selection area, that is sent to a
destination such as a file, a printer, the Clipboard, or another program.
ILQDOVL]H
The approximate height and width of the final image to be scanned.

A format that allows faster processing, but creates larger file sizes.
FlashPix files, which save with the .fpx extension, can be used on
Windows and Macintosh platforms. The format was developed by

JDPPD
The contrast that affects the mid-level grays or midtones of an image.
Adjusting the gamma of an image allows you to change the brightness
values of the middle range of gray tones without dramatically altering
the shadows and highlights. This applies to both black-and-white
images and color images. The default setting of 2.2 ensures integrity
among computer systems.
JUDLQ\
Refers to images, pictures, or photographs in which individual pixels
are relatively large and have areas of white between them, thus
reducing the overall perceived quality of the image. Graininess can
occur when you scan a poor-quality original or reduce the bit depth of
the scanned image by dithering or halftoning.
