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). |

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 or Dividing a TIFF File by Page. <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> |

When scanning is complete, follow the procedure below (except if you selected JPEG as a file format).
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.

A new folder is created on the USB memory device, and the scanned document is stored in that folder. The file name of a scanned document is automatically assigned based on the following format: the characters SCAN followed by a four-digit number.file extension name. The character string "SCAN" in the file name can be replaced with a different arbitrary character string (
