Choosing a File Type (continued) Choosing a File Type (continued) Format Description JPEG (EXIF) JPEG (JFIF) JPEG is adequate for images that will be output at low resolution or distributed in electronic form. Images can be compressed, allowing more images to be saved in the same amount of disk space. Note, however, that JPEG compression results in loss of information that can not afterwards be restored. Save files at the lowest compression ratio possible; if necessary, you can always save them again at a higher compression ratio. This format is not available when saving CMYK images or images with a bit depth of sixteen bits per channel. JFIF is the standard JPEG format, widely used in imaging software and web browsers. EXIF is an extension of the JPEG format that allows thumbnail data and information about the image to be included in a JPEG file. This format can be read by most applications that support the JPEG format. Format Description Use TIFF when saving images for high-quality output or publishing. Images scanned at a bit depth of twelve or fourteen bits or that have been converted to sixteen bits after scanning will be saved as sixteen-bit TIFF, eight-bit images TIFF as eight-bit TIFF. CMYK images will be saved as CMYK TIFF. Although the lack of compression will result in larger files, a high level of image quality will be maintained. This file type is supported by a wide variety of applications on a variety of computer platforms. PICT, the generic format used on the Macintosh, PICT (Macintosh only) supports JPEG compression. Most Macintosh users will be able to view files of this type. This format is not available in the Windows version of Nikon Scan, and does not support CMYK, sixteen-bit grayscale, or sixteen-bit RGB. This is the generic format used on Windows BMP (Windows only) systems. Most Windows users will be able to view files of this type. This format is not available in the Macintosh version of Nikon Scan, and does not support CMYK, sixteen-bit grayscale, or sixteen-bit RGB. Reference:The Nikon Scan Applet 99
