Specify settings for the gamma value and file compression ratio for converting scanned documents into files.
YCbCr TX Gamma Value
Select the gamma value used when converting scanned color documents into the specified file format. You can specify the same gamma value as that of the monitor which is to be used for viewing the converted files. The files are displayed with brightness that is true to the original documents. Setting Gamma Values

PDF (Compact) Image Quality Level
Adjust the balance between data size and image quality to suit the type of document you are scanning when converting scanned documents into PDF (Compact) files. <Data Size Priority> makes the compression ratio higher than normal to create smaller files with lower image quality. On the other hand, <Image Quality Priority> makes the compression ratio lower than normal to create larger files with higher image quality. Selecting a File Format

OCR (Text Searchable) Settings
The Searchable PDF mode enables you to perform OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to extract data that can be recognized as text from a scanned image. The text can then be added to a file to create a PDF file that is searchable. If you select<PDF (Compact/OCR)> or <PDF (OCR)> as the file format, you can set the Smart Scan setting. Smart Scan is a mode that determines the text direction to detect the alignment when sending a document. The PDF is saved to match the detected text direction.
