Scanning

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 page 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.

NOTE: The two other PDF formats—nPDF and sPDF—are for scanning with OCR processing and with the ability to search the scanned text. See the next section, “Text Formats,” and also “Scanning with sPDF or nPDF and Searching for Text” on page 68 for details.

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. A menu opens.
