dz The AXIS 700 comes pre-installed with 8 standard profiles designed to cover most needs. The profiles are maintained by the Administrator. If you have permission, you can define your own temporary profiles. See “Adding Temporary Profiles” on page 60.

Select a profile based on what is being scanned. Documents typically use one of the Text profiles. Pictures could use one of the Text/Photo, Gray or Color profiles.

Scanning color images to JPEG is more time consuming due to the amount of computation performed by the AXIS 700. Therefore, do not scan in higher resolution than needed, e.g. for web publishing of color images, “Color low” (75 dpi) should be sufficient.

The pre-defined Text profiles use the most efficient compression, CCITT G4, which minimizes the file size but affects performance. To get higher performance you can change the compression to CCITT G3, but then the file size will be larger.

If you intend to manipulate a color image using an image editor, it is recommended that you use uncompressed TIFF. Uncompressed TIFF may, however, generate very large files.

Apart from the predefined profiles below we also recommend two profiles which generate PDF documents. For recommended profiles, see “Specifying Profiles” on page 48.
