Scanning From One Touch 

DocuMate 742

2-18

User’s Guide

The PDF format is often used to create images of text pages. You may want to select PDF as the 
format when scanning text pages that do not require OCR processing or other processing. The 
PDF format is also used to put multi-page documents on web sites as pdf-readable files. As with 
the JPG option, the PDF format can be reduced in size or quality.

To select a JPEG or PDF file size:

1. Select 

JPG

 or 

PDF

 as the page format. 

2. Right-click on the 

JPG

 or 

PDF

 icon.

A menu opens.

3. Choose the file size/image quality option for your scanned images.

Minimize Size

—Smallest file size, lowest image quality.

Normal

—Medium file size, some loss of image quality.

Maximize Quality

—Largest file size, no loss of image quality.

Your selection pertains only to the button currently selected on the One Touch Properties 

window. Other buttons that have JPG or PDF selected as the Page Format are not affected, 

so you can set the JPG or PDF file size/image quality independently for each button.

4. Click 

OK

 or 

Apply

 on the One Touch Properties window.

Text Formats

Selecting the text format option also selects OCR processing as an automatic step for scanning. 
Therefore, when you scan a document with the text format selected, the text portions of the 
document are automatically converted to editable text. 
Select a text format for documents with text or numbers, such as a business letter, report, or 
spreadsheet. The text format icon has several file formats available, depending on the 
Destination Application you select.
The specific file format is the file name extension on the text format icon.

As you select Destination Applications that are text applications, the text format icon changes 
to match the file type of the application. In some cases, the Destination Application supports 
several file types, and you can right-click on the icon to choose the particular file type for that 
application.

The specific text format; this 

example is for Microsoft Word.
