File Type and Resolution Save a scanned document as one of several types of les.
The following standard le types are available:
●
PDF: This le type provides the best overall image and text quality. PDF les require Adobe® 
Acrobat® Reader software for viewing.
●
JPEG: This le type is a good choice for most graphics. Most computers have a browser that can 
view .JPEG les. This le type produces one le per page.
●
TIFF: This is a standard le type that many graphics programs support. This le type produces 
one le per page.
●
MTIFF: MTIFF stands for multi-page TIFF. This le type saves multiple scanned pages in a single 
le.
●
XPS: XPS (XML Paper Specication) creates an XAML le that preserves the original formatting of 
the document and supports color graphics and embedded fonts.
●
PDF/A: PDF/A is a type of PDF designed for long-term archival of electronic documents. All format 
information in the document is self-contained.
The following OCR le types are also supported:
●
Text (OCR): Text (OCR) creates a text le by using optical character recognition (OCR) to scan the 
original. A text le can be opened in any word processing program. The formatting of the original 
will not be saved using this option.
●
Unicode Text (OCR): Unicode Text (OCR) is an industry standard used to consistently represent and 
manipulate text. This le type is useful for internationalization and localization.
●
RTF (OCR): RTF (OCR) creates a rich text format (RTF) le by using optical character recognition 
(OCR) to scan the original. RTF is an alternative text format that can be opened by most word 
processing programs. Some of the formatting of the original will be saved using this option.
●
Searchable PDF (OCR): Searchable PDF (OCR) creates a searchable PDF le by using optical 
character recognition (OCR) to scan the original. When a document is scanned in this way, use 
Adobe Acrobat® Reader's search tools to search for specic words or phrases within the PDF.
●
Searchable PDF/A (OCR): Searchable PDF/A (OCR) is a type of PDF/A le that includes information 
about the document structure, which allows content to be searched.
●
HTML (OCR): HTML (OCR) creates a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) le containing the 
contents of the original document. HTML is used to display les on Web sites.
●
CSV (OCR): CSV (OCR) is common text le format that contains comma-separated values. This 
type of le can be opened by most word processing, spreadsheet, or database programs.
Resolution: Specify the resolution of scanned images. Select a higher resolution to increase the clarity 
of the image. However, as the resolution increases, the le size also increases.
Original Sides Specify whether the original document is printed on one side or both sides.
Color/Black Specify whether the scanned image will be in color, black and gray, or black only.
Original Size Specify the paper size for the original document.
