[Setup Bitmap Operation] dialog box

This dialog box appears when you add an image processor plug-in to the [Current Plug-in Menu] in [Plug-in Setting] dialog box. Use this dialog box to set up the
image processing program.
When you select a DocuWorks file and start the image processor plug-in, the application you have specified in this dialog box will run and process the current page.

[Path Name]

Specify the executable file of the image processing program.

[Browse]

Opens the [Open] dialog box for specifying an image processing program.

[Start-up Directory]

Enter the start-up directory of the image processing program into the text box. The image file will be created in this directory.

[File to Pass]

[Original Image]

Passes the current page image as bitmap to the image processing program.
Note
If the current page was not created from image file or scanner, then you cannot pass it to the image processing program. Also, annotations cannot be passed to the image processing program.
You can confirm whether the document is created from image file or scanner by the following ways.
  • In Desk, when you select a document in the workspace in thumbnail view, the word "Image" appears in the status bar.
  • In the Viewer InfoView, [Original] of the [Page Properties] tab will show [Image Document].

[Converted Image]

Converts the current page to the image file for use by the image processing program. You can specify [Format], [Resolution], and [Color/Monochrome].

[Format]

Specify a format for image conversion.
The default setting is [Bitmap File].

[Details]

Sets up the properties of the TIFF and JPEG files. When you click this button, either the [TIFF Setting] dialog box or the [JPEG Setting] dialog box will appear.

[Resolution]

Select or enter a desired resolution for the image conversion. The default resolution is the resolution selected the last time.
The default is [75 dpi] just after the installation.

[Color/Monochrome]

  • [Monochrome]
    Converts an image to monochrome and pass it to the image processing program.
  • [Color]
    Sends an image as color image to the image processing program.
Note
Only if the format is TIFF and you select [Multiple Pages in One File] in the [TIFF Setting], then all pages (not just the current page) will be sent to the image processing program.

[Convert color image to monochrome putting priority on quality]

Prefers high quality and converts a color image to monochrome. This button is available when [Monochrome] is selected in [Color/Monochrome]. However, this button is invalid when conversion format is JPEG or TIFF (compression type is JPEG).
