File format
To define the internal organisation of the scanned files, choose between TIFF
(Tagged Image File Format) and CALS-I (Continuous Acquisition and
Life-Cycle support), or PDF (Portable Document Format).
TIFF describes image data that typically comes from scanners, frame grabbers,
and paint- and photo-retouching programs. The purpose of TIFF is to describe
and store raster image data. A primary goal of TIFF is to provide a rich
environment within which applications can exchange image data. This
richness is required to take advantage of the varying capabilities of scanners
and other imaging devices. For example TIFF supports lossless image
compression. Though TIFF is a rich format, it can easily be used for simple
scanners and applications as well because the number of required fields is
small.
CALS is an industry strategy for transition of paper-intensive processes to
highly automated, integrated processes for defense system acquisition, design,
manufacturing, and life cycle support.
PDF Portable Document Format (Adobe® Postscript® 3™ /PDF) is a file
format that has captured all the elements of a printed document as an electronic
image that you can view, navigate, print or forward.
