You can specify the scanning size of your originals. |
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 |
If you select JPEG in <File Format> and try to scan the original from the platen glass, you can only scan one page. To scan multiple pages of the 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 an original with multiple pages either from the platen glass or using the feeder. In this case, whether the original is to be saved as a single file or each page as separate files can be specified in Dividing a PDF file by Page or Dividing a TIFF File by Page. <PDF (Compact)> and <PDF (Compact/OCR)> compress photos and illustrations on the original more than <PDF> and <PDF (OCR)>, and the file size will be smaller. However, the image quality or the number of pages in the original that can be scanned at once may be lower depending on the original type. In <PDF (Compact/OCR)> and <PDF (OCR)>, you can configure the settings so that the machine automatically detects the original orientation based on the direction of the text read by the OCR function when scanning the original. <OCR (Text Searchable) Settings> |
The machine can automatically scan the front and back sides of originals in the feeder. |
The machine cannot automatically scan both sides of the original placed on the platen glass. |
1 | If there are additional pages of originals to be scanned, place the next original on the platen glass, and select <Scan Next>. Repeat this step until you finish scanning all of the pages. When there is only one page to be scanned, proceed to the next step. |
2 | Select <End>. The saving process starts. |
