Preference Settings
OmniPage Pro Settings - 78
The colors settings enable you to define the color depth of the scanned
image. You can choose 256 colors (8-bit), or Thousands of colors (16-bit)
depending on your needs for the scanned image. The memory
requirements for each scanned page size, selected dpi resolution, and
selected color depth appear at the bottom of the Preferences Settings
Panel.
These settings are ignored if you have selected Monochrome or Gray
Scale in the Scanner selection of the Settings Panel.
You can take advantage of these settings if you intend to use the scanned
graphic image components for other work on your Macintosh. For
example, you can use the Save As... button in the AutoOCR Toolbar to
specify that all of the recognized graphic components are saved as TIFF
or PICT files on your hard drive. The dpi and colors settings enable you
to specify the quality of the scanned images that are available for other
work.
