Converting image files at transfer

When images are transferred, you can have them converted to TIFF, MO:DCA. or PDF format. Use this procedure:

  1. In the Transfer job description settings, click Options.

  2. The Transfer job options dialog is displayed. Select which images to convert:

  3. Optional: If you used duplex scanning or imported image files that conform to the FORMS naming convention (with the file name of the front page ending with an even number, and the back page ending with that even number + 1), select Front & back in same file to convert both the front and back pages and save them to a file with the same name as the original front page.

    If you do not select this option, the front and back pages are still converted, but they are saved in different files.

  4. Optional: Select One set per file or One batch per file to save each set or batch to a single multi-image file.

  5. Optional: Select Keep original file to keep the original image file in addition to the converted file.

  6. Optional: Select Reduce file size to save smaller-than-standard files. This works on any of the supported file types.

  7. In the File extension box, specify the extension of the new image files. Use one of these extensions:

    • PDF – exports files with PDF format.

    • TIF – exports files with TIFF format. Important: You must type "TIF", not "TIFF".

    • MDA – exports files with MO:DCA format.
