Selecting a File Format
1469-04Y
You can select the le format to which documents ar
e scanned, from PDF/JPEG/TIFF.
For PDF, you can select a highly compressed PDF le with a reduced le size.
<Scan> Specify a destination with <E-Mail>/<File> <File Format> Select a le format
<PDF>
Converts a scanned document into a PDF le with no le size r
eduction.
<PDF (Compact)>
Converts a scanned document into a PDF le with a r
educed le size than that of <PDF>.
<JPEG>
The scanned document is converted into a JPEG le.
<TIFF>
The scanned document is converted into a TIFF le.
If you select JPEG in <File Format> and try to scan a document from the platen glass, you can only scan one
page. To scan a multiple-page document all at once, use the feeder. Each page of the document is saved as a
separate le. If you select TIFF or PDF, you can scan multiple-page documents either from the platen glass or
from the feeder and the whole of the scanned document is saved as one le.
<PDF (Compact)> compresses photos and illustrations on documents more than <PDF>. The le will be
smaller, but the image quality of some documents or the number of documents that can be scanned at once
may be lower.
For the resolutions of each le format, see Specications for Scanning to Shared Folders (MF249dw /
MF247dw)(P. 656) .
