PDF - intelligent High-Quality Compression
In Readiris you also have the possibility to compress your PDF documents. Refer to the separate section
Compressing PDF documents for more information.
Tip: also see the section Password-protecting PDF documents and Digitally signing PDF
documents.
Compressing PDF documents
The PDF documents you generate with Readiris can be hyper-compressed by means of iHQC. iHQC stands
for intelligent High-Quality Compression, I.R.I.S.' proprietary, efficient compression technology. iHQC
is to images what MP3 is to music and what DivX is to movies.
To generate compressed PDF documents:
Select PDF in the Output group, and then click the down arrow beneath it to configure the settings.
Or if PDF is not displayed in the Output group, click Other.
Select the required PDF type from the drop-down list.
Note that iHQC compression is unavailable for PDF Text and PDF Text-Image files.
Select the required compression level: there are three levels of compression.
For each level there are two types of compression: Good Size and Good Quality. Good Size offers
the best compression, with a minimal loss of image quality. Good Quality offers slightly larger output
files with better image quality.
Notes:
In Readiris Pro you can select Level I - Good Size, and Level I - Good Quality.
In Readiris Corporate you have access to all levels of iHQC.
