[Paper Size for Import]
[If image exceeds the maximum size, fit into the maximum size]
When this check box is selected, if the size of the imported image is large, the image size is reduced to fit the paper size set for [Maximum size]. [A3] or [2A0 (long)] can be selected for [Maximum size].
Specifying how the paper size is determined when importing image files.
Specify how the paper size is determined when importing image files.
When [If image exceeds the maximum size, fit into the maximum size] is selected, the image size is reduced to fit into the maximum size, and then the paper size is determined according to the following options.
The default is [Query When Capture Image].
When [If image exceeds the maximum size, fit into the maximum size] is selected, the image size is reduced to fit into the maximum size, and then the paper size is determined according to the following options.
The default is [Query When Capture Image].
- [Fit to Standard Size Paper]
DocuWorks will select the smallest standard paper size that can show the whole image. - [Fit to Imported Image]
DocuWorks will select the same size document as the imported image.
The side of document's paper ranges from 30 to 2,400 mm. If the image outside this range is converted, white space may appear or the parts outside the range may not appear. - [Query When Capture Image]
During creating documents, the [Import Image File(s)] dialog box will appear to prompt you to specify the paper size.
[Color Image quality and compression rate]
Specify the image quality and compression rate that will be applied when importing files. If [Query When Capture Image] is specified in [Paper size for image file import], you cannot select this item. Select it in the [Import Image file(s)] dialog box shown when importing an image file.
The default is [Normal].
The settings of [Color Image quality and compression rate] will be applied to images according to the image file type as follows:
The default is [Normal].
The settings of [Color Image quality and compression rate] will be applied to images according to the image file type as follows:
| Type | Settings to be applied |
|---|---|
| JPEG files | The settings of [Color Image quality and compression rate] will be overwritten. Instead, JPEG data compression rate will be used. |
| TIFF files in JPEG compression format | The settings of [Color Image quality and compression rate] will be overwritten. Instead, the compression rate of JPEG data extracted from the TIFF image will be used. When it is impossible to extract JPEG data from a TIFF image or is impossible to convert extracted JPEG data to DocuWorks document, the settings of [Color Image quality and compression rate] will be applied to such an image file. |
| TIFF files in a compression format other than JPEG | The settings of [Color Image quality and compression rate] will be applied. |
| Any other image files than can be imported to Desk | The settings of [Color Image quality and compression rate] will be applied. |
- [Priority on compression rate]
Image processing which gives priority to small size over high quality - [Normal]
Image processing using a standard compression rate. The resulting size is slightly greater than with [Priority on compression rate]. - [Priority on image quality]
Image processing which gives priority to high quality over small size. The resulting size is greater than with standard. - [No Loss]
The quality will not be degraded, but the size will be almost larger than that produced by the High Quality method.
[Apply "No loss" if compression rate for "No loss" has higher rate.]
Even if [Priority on compression rate], [Normal], or [Priority on image quality] is selected, the image in which [No Loss] is considered to be higher in compression rate will be compressed with [No Loss].
If [No Loss] is selected, you cannot select this box.
