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, such as photo touch-up or color correction. Both of those file formats tend to be larger than the JPEG format.

Because JPEG image files can be reduced in size, the JPEG format is often used for images on web pages, or if file size might be a problem when electronically sending the files. 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.
