Guidelines for Format
and Compression
In editing or creating a new profile it is necessary to specify the
format and compression techniques that are to be employed. The
table below highlights the significant benefits of each method.
Notes:
Format Comments
TIFF For color, black/white and grayscale images. Both single- and multipage
images are supported
JFIF For color and grayscale images. Single page images only.
PDF For black/white, color and grayscale images. Both single- and multipage
images are supported. Requires the Adobe Acrobat Reader.
PCL Profile used for print destinations - black and white only.
• Compression techniques are distinguished by whether they remove detail
from the image or not. CCITT encoding is a family of lossless compression
techniques for black/white images, of which CCIT G.4 is the most effi-
cient compression method.
• JPEG is a compression technique that effectively reduces file size by iden-
tifying and discarding extra data not essential to the display of the
image.
• If you intend to manipulate a color image using an image editor, you are
recommended to use uncompressed TIFF.
• Although the generated TIFF files do not contain searchable text, you can
use an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) application to convert the
bitmap to text that can be edited, indexed, searched or copied to other
files.
