Scan files are too large ● Most scanning software allows a smaller file size to be selected when selecting the output file type. For more information, see the Help for the scanning software being used. ● Verify the scan resolution setting (for more information, see the Help for the scanning software being used): - 200 dpi is sufficient for storing documents as images. - For most fonts, 300 dpi is sufficient for using optical character recognition (OCR) to create editable text. - For Asian fonts and small fonts, choosing a higher resolution is recommended.
