Scanning for PDF
The scanner can easily convert any paper document into an image and saves it as
an Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) file for viewing with the Adobe
application software. It also offers variable compression levels for full controls
over file sizes and image quality.
1. Place the documents to be scanned on the ADF's Document Feed Tray.
2. Launch ScanWizard DI in stand-alone mode by clicking the program icon on
the desktop.
3. Follow the procedures (steps 3 through 6) for “Scanning a Stack of
Documents” to specify your scanning requirements
4. Click the Scan To button to open the “Scan To: Save As” dialog box.
In the “Scan To: Save As” dialog box, specify the following settings:
a) Key in your preferred file name in the “File name” edit box, or use the
default “Image” as a root file name.
b) Select “Portable Document Format” as your file-saving format from the
“Save as type” drop-down menu.
The File Option button is active when the
“RGB Color” or “Grayscale” is set as your
image output type and the PDF is
chosen. With this function, you can
control the image quality compression as
your desired.
c) Check the “Save multiple
images as a single file” option
to store all the scanned images
as a single file if desired.
Specify the number of the
scanned images that you would
like to be saved in a single file.
d) Check the “Send image to
application after saving” option,
then choose your Adobe
application software from the
options.
5. Click the Save button.
The originals are sequentially
scanned until the stack of
documents is depleted; when
finished, all the scanned images are
saved as a single file. The saved
file can now be opened from your
chosen application and is ready to
be viewed.
Note: The scanner also allows you to scan a text document and convert it to an
editable PDF file for editing with the Adobe Acrobat writer. Follow the procedures
for “Scanning for OCR”, in step 4b, select the “Portable Document Format” as your
file-saving format.
