Saving a Compact PDF

This mode enables you to save files containing text originals or text/photo originals using a high compression ratio. If you select [Compact] as the PDF file format, it is recommended that you set the original type setting to either 'Text/Photo' or 'Text', depending on the image type. [PDF (Compact)] is displayed on the screen for saving the document.


Remark
  • If the document is a long strip original (850 mm or longer), you cannot save it as a compact PDF. (The scanner of the machine can scan long strip originals up to 630 mm in length.)
  • This mode is available only if the optional Universal Send PDF Advanced Feature Set is activated.

  1. Place your originals, display the memory media selection screen → press [File Format].

To check the screens for this procedure, see steps 1 and 2 of "Setting the File Format."

  1. Press [Compact].

  1. Specify whether to divide your documents into separate pages → press [OK].

If you want to separate multiple images and save them as separate files, each of which consists of only one page, press [Divide into Pages], and the key lights.

If you want to save multiple images as a single file without dividing them, do not press [Divide into Pages], and the key remains unlit.

  • If [Compact] is selected for the PDF file format, the resolution is automatically changed to [300x300 dpi]. If the Color mode is set to [Auto-Color Select (Full Color/Black and White)] or [Black and White], the Color mode is automatically changed to [Auto-Color Select (Full Color/ Grayscale)] or [Grayscale], respectively. If you want to save the document with the resolution setting and the Color mode that you specify, change the PDF file format to anything other than [Trace & Smooth] or [Compact].
  • If [PDF (Compact)] is selected as the file format for the Standard mode, a message prompting you to change the file format may appear on the screen. In this case, change the file format to anything other than [PDF (Trace)] or [PDF (Compact)].
  • If [PDF (Trace)] is selected as the file format, documents can be saved only at a zoom ratio of 100%.
  • To view a PDF file or to search a text in a PDF file, software that supports the PDF format (such as Adobe Reader/Adobe Acrobat) is required.
  • If you select [Compact], you can also set [OCR (Text Searchable)] at the same time.
  • For more information on this file format, see "PDF (Trace)" in the glossary.
