Description
BITMAP (*.
bmp) (Windows
only)
A standard image file format for Windows. Most Windows
programs, including word processing programs, can read and
prepare images in this format.
JPEG (*.jpg) A compressed file format in which the Compression Level can
be selected. The JPEG format lets you highly compress image
data. However, the higher the compression, the lower the
image quality. Any lost image quality data cannot be
restored, and the quality deteriorates each time the data is
saved. The TIFF format is recommended when modification
and retouching are required.
Multi-TIFF (*.tif) A TIFF format where multiple pages are saved to the same
file. You can also edit the scanned images before saving
them. See Epson Scan Help for details. To open Multi-TIFF
files, you need a program that supports it.
PDF (*.pdf) A document format that can be read on both Windows and
Macintosh systems (platform independent). To use PDF
documents in Windows, you need Adobe Reader or Acrobat.
Multi-page documents can be saved as one PDF file. When
you save color or grayscale images in PDF, you can select a
Compression Level.
