Fields & buttons

Reduce Image Size on Disk
Mark this checkbox to reduce the selected DPI setting. This setting overrides the DPI settings that are set up in your scanning software. Because a smaller image size requires less disk space for storage you can mark the
Reduce Image Size on Disk
checkbox to minimize the image size, and then select an appropriate DPI value from the available drop-down.
note
The quality of the image may be reduced below the recommended 400 DPI setting when you scan documents to include in the transfer to Source Document Processing.
Optimize color for Black and white / Color pages
FileCabinet CS can store a reduced, scanned image differently, depending on whether it is in color or black and white. Select the
Color Pages
option to retain the colors of the original document. Select the
Black and White Pages
option if the original document is black and white.
note
  • These options are available only if you marked the
    Reduce Image Size on Disk
    checkbox.
  • Black and white images take up less storage space on your disk.
Invert colors
With certain scanner drivers, colors are inverted on the pages scanned into FileCabinet CS (white text on black background). Mark this checkbox to invert colors.
note
Marking this checkbox does not change settings in your scanning application, so it will not affect the scanning of pages into other applications.
