PDF Options

• PDF conformance: Select what type of PDF to output.

  • PDF 1.4

  • PDF 1.5

  • PDF 1.6

  • PDF 1.7

  • PDF 2.0

  • PDF/A-1a

  • PDF/A-2a

  • PDF/A-1b

  • PDF/A-2b

  • PDF/A-2u

  • PDF/A-3a

  • PDF/A-3b

  • PDF/A-3u

• JPEG compression level: Select which compression level to output. The higher the compression, the better the output.

  • None

  • Medium

  • High

• Downsampling: Select the DPI (Dots Per Inch) for the output file. The higher the DPI, the clearer the image appears. Downsampling the DPI can result in smaller file sizes.

  • Original

  • 100 DPI

  • 125 DPI

  • 150 DPI

  • 175 DPI

  • 200 DPI

  • 225 DPI

  • 250 DPI

  • 275 DPI

  For All Images / For images above: Select the appropriate option for your needs, whether to apply downsampling to all image or to only apply downsampling for images above the specified DPI limit.

• Use MRC Format: MRC is short for Multi-Raster Content Technology, which segments images into layers and applies different compression algorithms to each layer, thus optimizing both file size and quality. Enable this option if the imported PDFs use the MRC format. For more information on storage differences with downsampling in the MRC format, see the table below:
