3.4 Saving Scanned Images in PDF
Format
To save scanned images in PDF format, Adobe Acrobat must be installed on your PC.
Adobe Acrobat can be installed from the provided Adobe Acrobat CD-ROM.
There are two ways to save scanned images in PDF format.
(1) Using ScandAll 21
This method is recommended when the image is scanned in color or grayscale mode.
The benefits are:
Reduced PDF file size
Easy creation with no special operations
(2) Using Adobe Acrobat
This method is recommended for faster creation of PDF files and for black and white scanning.
The benefits are:
Quick Creation of PDF file with original scan resolution unchanged
The file size can be adjusted by changing the PDF compression rate
ATTENTION
Notes for using Adobe Acrobat
•
Acrobat's default settings overrides the previous settings for “Resolution”, “Scan Type”
and “Image Mode”.
•
The following functions cannot be used:
- “256 Color” or “8 Color”
- “Rotation Degree” selection when “End of Page Detection” is selected
- Long Page Scanning
•
When scanning a paper document and converting the image to PDF using Acrobat,
unexpected images may be output when:
1. Setting “Edge Shadow Removal” in Acrobat, and setting “Digital Endorser” or
“Black Background” options in the TWAIN driver at the same time. Letter strings
embedded in the image or the background may be missed.
Solution 1:
Set “Edge shadow removal” to “OFF” or set any option other than
“Adaptive” for “Color/Grayscale” and/or “Monochrome” under “Compression” by
selecting [File] - [Create PDF] - [From Scanner…] - [Image Settings…] in Acrobat.
Solution 2:
Adjust the scanning density in the TWAIN driver.
2. Setting “Adaptive” for “Color/Grayscale” and/or “Monochrome” under “Compres-
sion” in Acrobat and scanning in a resolution lower than the resolution recom-
mended for Acrobat.
Solution:
Set OPTION to something other than “Adaptive” under “Compression.”
3. Scanning a document longer than the double letter (11x17) or A3 size, when set-
ting “Overscan” in the TWAIN driver, the scan may fail.
Solution:
When scanning a double letter (11x17) or A3 size of document, do not
set “Overscan” in TWAIN driver.
As for detailed usage and information of Acrobat, refer to “Create a PDF file from a
scanned document” in Acrobat Help.
