to set everything to default.
▪
Zero based index in names
: Z-Stack layers of the generated TIFF files
will be indexed starting with 0, and the focus distance of the actual
layer will not be included (inactive by default).
▪
Display FL channels RGB-colorized
: a 24-/48-bit color TIFF image is
generated based on the FL channels. File size is bigger, but most of the
image viewers are capable to open it. An 8-/16-bit grayscale TIFF image
will be generated if not selected. File size is smaller, but some of the
viewers cannot handle it.
▪
TIFF type
•
Automatic
: the converter automatically selects the most
appropriate method based on the size of the source slide.
•
Force simple tiff
: TIFF files use 32-bit offset addressing;
therefore, file size is limited to a maximum of 4Gb.
•
Force big tiff
: Big TIFF files use 64-bit offset addressing
allowing the creation of bigger TIFF files.
▪
Compression type
•
Jpeg (8-bit)
: compression rate can be set (1-100, default: 80).
•
Lossless compression 8-bit
•
Lossless compression native:
color depth of the source slide is
inherited (16-bit is supported).
•
Uncompressed 8-bit
•
Uncompressed native:
color depth of the source slide is
inherited (16-bit is supported).
▪
Compression rate
: default is 80, on a scale of 1-100.
▪
Zoom scale
: set the level of zoom at which the TIFF image is created to
get the smallest file size possible.
