<PDF (Compact)> compresses photos and illustrations on documents more than <PDF>. The file will be smaller, but the image quality of some documents or the number of documents that can be scanned at once may be lower. If you select <PDF (Compact)>, you can specify the compression level.
You can create a text-searchable PDF by selecting <PDF (Compact/OCR)> or <PDF (OCR)> to process the document with OCR (optical character recognition). This function detects the orientation of the document and automatically rotates it to create a PDF. For mor information, see OCR (Text Searchable) Settings.
For the resolutions of each file format, see Specifications for Scanning to Shared Folders/File Servers.
