Output File Image Settings

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
Gamma 1.0
Gamma 1.4
Gamma 1.8
Gamma 2.2
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)> or <PDF (Compact/OCR)> files (Selecting a File Format). <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
