Xerox 490 ST, 480 ST manual Document Centre supports Tiff File Formats

H.The scanned file is transferred to a folder in the scanner account on the file server. The .XSM extension on the folder represents a Xerox document storage format that is designed to simplify integration with third-party software applications.

I.At your workstation, view or list the directory path for the scanner account on the file server. The scanning operation created a folder named DOC.XSM

J.Open the DOC.XSM folder. You should see several files in this folder:

00000001.TIF ...00000002.TIF for example, are the individual TIFF images of the pages that were scanned. There can be several TIFF files if the document has more than one page, or if Append was selected for the Filing Policy and more than one document has been scanned.

Each page of the document is represented by a different TIFF file. (Unless the Enable Multi-Page TIFF option is selected, which will create a single TIFF file for a multi- page document, instead of one TIFF file for each page.)

NOTE The Document Centre supports TIFF File Formats.

NETSCAN.DAT is an ASCII file which contains the names of the TIFF files scanned with the last scanning operation. This file is updated after every successful storage of a .TIF file.

NEXTNAME.DAT is an ASCII file which contains the name of the next available .TIF file. This name is controlled and incremented based on the Filing Policy specified in the job template.

NETSCAN.XST contains the template information for the last file that was scanned. It is also used as a job log for status and a source for the post-processing of information.

XSMDESC.DAT is an ASCII file containing the document name (0-50 characters).
