Selecting a File Format
You can select the file format to which originals are scanned from PDF/JPEG/TIFF.
For PDF, you can select Compact PDF that reduces the data size or the PDF format
that enables a text search by including text data scanned with OCR (optical
character recognition). You can also create a PDF file with enhanced security by
encrypting data or adding the signature. Enhancing the Security of
Electronic Files(P. 306)
<File Format> Select a file format
● If you select JPEG in <File Format> and try to scan an original from the platen glass, you can only scan
one page. To scan a multiple-page original all at once, use the feeder. Each page of the original is
saved as a separate file. If you select TIFF or PDF, you can scan multiple-page originals either from the
platen glass or from the feeder. In this case, whether the original is to be saved as a single file or each
page as a separate file can be specified in Dividing a PDF File by Page(P. 285) or Dividing a TIFF
File by Page(P. 285) .
● <PDF (Compact)> and <PDF (Compact/OCR)> compress photos and illustrations on originals more
than <PDF> and <PDF (OCR)>. The file will be smaller, but the image quality of some originals or the
number of originals that can be scanned at once may be lower.
● In <PDF (Compact/OCR)> and <PDF (OCR)> you can configure the settings so that the machine
automatically detects the original direction during scanning based on the direction of the text read by
the OCR function. <OCR (Text Searchable) Settings>(P. 490)
◼ Dividing a PDF File by Page
