 File Format:
The file format that you have selected determined the file format for the scanned image of your document.
Choose your ideal file format for the specific button number. Choice includes BMP, PNG, GIF, JPEG, Single-
Page PDF, Multi-page PDF, Multi-page TIFF and TIFF.
BMP:
BMP is the standard Windows image format on DOS and Windows-compatible computers. The BMP format
supports RGB, indexed-color, grayscale, and Bitmap color modes.
GIF:
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) format was created mainly for Internet uses, mainly for its small file
size. It's good for fast-loading web pages only. Nowadays Gif is widely used on the World Wide Web, both
for still images and for animations. GIF displays a maximum of 256 colors, which makes it unsuitable for
pictures with continuous colors. Its application is best for color clip art, black-and-white line drawings, or
images with large blocks of solid colors.
PNG:
PNG (Portable Network Graphic) is also a bitmap of indexed colors under a lossless compression, but
without copyright limitations; commonly used to store graphics for Web images. PNG is superior to GIF in
that it has better compression and supports millions of colors. PNG files end in a .png suffix.
TIFF:
TIFF (The Tagged-Image File Format) is a flexible bitmap image format supported by virtually all paint,
image-editing, and page-layout applications. Also, virtually all desktop scanners can produce TIFF images.
To compress your file size, click the “Properties” button. Move the slider to the right or to the left to
increase or decrease the level of compression. Note the greater the compression level, the lower image
quality.
