Xerox 6400 Scanner User’s Guide

Because JPG image files can be reduced in size, the JPG format is
often used for images on web pages, or if file size might be a
problem when electronically sending the files. JPG files are
reduced in size by lowering their image quality, and you can select
the degree of quality for your scanned images from the JPG page
format icon.

The PDF format is often used to create images of text pages. You
may want to select PDF as the page 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 JPG or PDF file size:

1. Select JPG or PDF as the page format.

2. Right-click on the JPG or PDF icon.

A menu appears.

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.

Maximum 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.

NOTE:

The Adobe Acrobat Reader application must be

installed on your computer before you can use the PDF format.
