Note

  • To deliver files, specify the file type using the delivery server computer. For details, see the manuals provided with the ScanRouter delivery software.

  • If you select [Store Only] under [Store File], you cannot specify the file type.

  • If you select [Send & Store] under [Store File], files are sent by e-mail or Scan to Folder in the specified file type. However, files cannot be stored in the specified type - instead, they are automatically stored in one of the following file types, depending on the Compression and Scan Type settings.

    • JPEG

      Under [Scanner Features], [Compression (Gray Scale / Full Colour)] or [Compression (Gray Scale)] is set to [On], and originals are scanned in full color or gray scale.

    • TIFF

      All other scannings

  • High Compression PDF reduces the file's data volume without loss of character legibility. For details about the limitations of High Compression PDF, see "Notes About and Limitations of File Types".
