l TIFF:îThe output will be a TIFFîfile. TIFF is a higher quality format that is one of the standards for
document exchange, useful for eventual printing or archiving. You have a choice of the following
compressed TIFF formats: TIFF Group 3, TIFF Group 4, and TIFF Packed bits. You can also use
the uncompressed TIFF format, which produces the largest files with the highest quality. TIFF is
a versatile and platform-independent format. It is used in many digitizing projects as the format of
choice for the digital masters. The TIFF Group 3 and Group 4 formats are efficient for document
storage.
l The AutoStore, DocAccel and KYOcapture formats also generate TIFF files along with special
XMLîthat are meant for these specialized systems.
l
DPI: Enter the dots per inch (dpi) resolution of the output image. This property is enabled for all output
types except PDF.
l
Color depth: Enter the color depth of the output image in bits per pixel (bpp). The color depth is
measured in bits, because each pixel of the output image can be described with a varied number of
bits. A higher bit number allows for more colors. It also increases the image file size. A 1-bit color
depth produces monochrome images. 8-bits produce grayscale images (in PlanetPress Design you
can have 8-bit color images, but these are reduced to grayscale if you select 8-bit here), while 24-bits
produce full color images. For JPEG output, you cannot select a monochrome (1 bpp) color depth. For
TIFF G3 and TIFF G4, monochrome (1 bpp) is the only Color depth option you can select. This
property is enabled for all output types except PDF.
l
Multi-page: Select to generate a single file containing multiple pages. When this option is not
selected, PReS Image creates a file for each page included in the output file. This property is enabled
for all output types except PDF and JPEG.
l Add page number: Select to put a page number on each page included in the output file. This option
goes with the Multiple TIFF option and is only visible if either the AutoStore, DocAccel or KYOcapture
format is selected.
l
Archive output: Select to archive generated files. If you select this option, you must enter a folder path
in the Archive folder box and a name in the File name box.
l
Send Email: Select to send the generated file via email. You enter the emailing properties in the
Login, Recipients, and Attachment(s) tabs. Note that the generated file will only be sent if you select
the Attach output file(s) option in the Attachment(s) tab.
l
Archive folder: Enter the path of the folder to which output files generated by this task are to be
archived. PDF index files (PDI and XML) are also put in this folder. This edit box is enabled when the
Archive output option is selected.
