Scanned documents will be output as highly compressed color images.
ATTENTION
In "Color high compression" mode, characters and backgrounds on the docu-ment are compressed separately, and thus, the file size of the document that mostly consists of text characters becomes smaller while keeping the quality of the characters as they are. However, this mode is not appropriate for scanning photographs or figures because these graphical materials are recognized as background and compressed as such, causing degradation in images. If this setting is specified, the contrast of the image may become higher.
