Default paper size
From the Default paper size drop–down list, choose the paper size to be used for saving in PDF
format.
Save mode
Depending on how you are planning to use your electronic document, select one of the best option
below:
• Text and pictures only
This option saves only the recognized text and the associated pictures. The page will be fully
searchable and the size of the PDF file will be small. The appearance of the resulting document may
slightly differ from the original.
• Text over the page image
This option saves the background and pictures of the original document and places the recognized
text over them. Usually, this PDF type requires more disk space than Text and pictures only. The
resulting PDF document is fully searchable. In some cases, the appearance of the resulting
document may slightly differ from the original.
• Text under the page image
This option saves the entire page image as a picture and places the recognized text underneath.
Use this option to create a fully searchable document that looks virtually the same as the original.
• Page image only
This option saves the exact image of the page. This type of PDF document will be virtually
indistinguishable from the original but the file will not be searchable.
Depending on the save mode you select, some of the following options will become available:
• Retain text and background colors
Select this option to retain the font color and background when saving in PDF.
• Keep headers and footers
Preserves headers and footers in the output document.
• Enable Tagged PDF (compatible with Adobe Acrobat 5.0 and above)
Select this option to add PDF tags into the output PDF document.
Apart from text and pictures, PDF files can contain information about the document
structure such as logical parts, pictures, and tables. This information is encoded in PDF tags.
A PDF file equipped with PDF tags may be reflowed to fit different screen sizes and will
display well on handheld devices.
Important! If your recognized document contains text in Hebrew or Yiddish, you cannot
create a tagged PDF file.
• Use Mixed Raster Content
Select this option to retain the visual quality of the text and the pictures in a highly compressed
document.
• Create outline
Select this option if you wish to create a table of contents from the document headings.
Picture settings
The resulting file may be quite large if your text contains a lot of pictures or if you choose to save
the page image together with the recognized text. To adjust the size of the resulting file and the
quality of the pictures, select one of the options from the Image settings drop–down list:
