IMAGE FORMATS
Select an image file format for photos, artwork or other documents that
you want to save as images. BMP and TIFF are standard image file formats
generally used if you want to do additional image processing. Both of those
file formats tend to be larger than the JPEG format file size.
JPEG files are reduced in size by lowering their image quality, and you can
select the degree of quality for your scanned images from the JPEG file
format icon.
The PDF format is often used to create images of text pages. You may want
to select PDF as the page format when scanning text pages that do not
require OCR processing or other processing. The PDF format is also used
to put multi-page documents on web sites as pdf-readable files. As with the
JPEG option, the PDF format can be reduced in size or quality.
To select a JPEG or PDF file size:
1. Select JPG or PDF as the page format.
2. Right-click on the JPG or PDF icon.
3. Choose the image quality option for your scanned images from the
option menu.
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.
Your selection pertains only to the button currently selected on the
OneTouch Properties window. Other buttons that have JPG or PDF
selected as the Page Format are not affected, so you can set the JPG or
PDF file size/image quality independently for each button.
4. Click OK or Apply on the OneTouch Properties window.
