SCANNING FROM ONETOUCH
76
Additional options are available on the menu for the sPDF and nPDF text formats. The three image
quality settings are:
Minimize Size—Smallest file size, lowest image quality.
Normal—Medium file size, some loss of image quality.
Maximize Quality—Largest file size, no loss of image quality.
The Use MRC option is a special processing procedure for documents scanned with the PDF format.
Use MRC—MRC stands for Mixed Raster Content. MRC is an advanced technique for optimizing
the image quality of scanned documents. Without MRC, the scanned image is produced using a
single process to capture and display the image on the computer screen, even if the document
contains both text and graphics. With MRC, the image is produced using separate processes for text,
graphics, and other elements on the document page. The result is clearer graphics and sharper text
characters. Scans with Use MRC selected may take slightly longer to complete the processing. Select
Use MRC for documents with harder-to-read text or lower-quality graphics to get the best possible
scan output image. The Use MRC option is available for sPDF and PDF.
SELECTING ONETOUCH OMNIPAGE OCR OPTIONS
The software you installed for your scanner includes a set of advanced OCR options integrated with
OneTouch 4.0.
To select OCR options available from OneTouch 4.0:
1. Open the OneTouch Properties window.
2. Select a Destination Application that has one of the text format file types as the page format, such as
Microsoft Word or WordPad.
3. Right-click on the page format icon to see the menu.
Normal PDF—The .pdf file format used by Adobe Acrobat. This format converts scanned text
into a PDF with the text ready for editing in a PDF editing program.
Note: Documents scanned with nPDF and sPDF automatically include OCR processing. If the
processing does not recognize a large number of the text characters in the document, change the image
quality setting and re-scan the document. For example, change from Minimize Size to Normal to see if
the text recognition improves.
Note: The OCR options apply globally to all the OneTouch Destination Applications that perform
OCR. For example, if you select the OCR options for Adobe Acrobat, they also apply to WordPad.
Note: The OmniPage application that you received with your scanner also have OCR capabilities. See
their user’s guides for more information about their OCR features.
