Scan files are too large

●

Most scanning software allows a smaller file size to be selected when selecting the output file type. For

more information, see the Help for the scanning software being used.

●

Verify the scan resolution setting (for more information, see the Help for the scanning software being

using):

—

200 dpi is sufficient for storing documents as images.

—

For most fonts, 300 dpi is sufficient for using optical character recognition (OCR) to create editable

text.

—

For Asian fonts and small fonts, choosing a higher resolution is recommended.

NOTE: For some special black dot background scans, saving the image as a .tif file might make the

image smaller.

Scanning at a higher resolution than necessary creates a larger file with no additional benefit.

●

Color scans create larger files than do black and white scans.

●

If scanning a large number of pages at one time, consider scanning fewer pages at a time to create

more, smaller files.

Issues with text recognition (OCR)

Issues with text recognition (OCR) (Windows)

The scanner uses optical character recognition (OCR) to convert text on a page to text that can be edited on a

computer.

●

If text can be scanned but cannot be edited, make the following selections before scanning:

—

Select a scan shortcut that supports OCR. The following scan shortcuts support OCR:

○

Save as PDF

—

Select one of the following OCR-based, output-file types from the File Type drop-down box:

○

Text (.txt)

○

Rich Text (.rtf)

NOTE: If an OCR-based, output-file type is not selected, the document is scanned as a graphic and the text

is not editable.

●

Check the originals
