When PDF format is selected, select whether or not to use [High Compression for Color PDF]
mode. When [High Compression for Color PDF] is selected, characters and backgrounds are
separated and only backgrounds are compressed. Therefore, the file size of a character
based document can be reduced without the quality of the characters being decreased.
However, note the following:
Photographs or pictures are recognized as background and compressed at a high rate,
causing degradation in the scanned image.
Thus, this mode is not appropriate for scanning photographs or other graphical materials.
The contrast of the image may become higher.
