Important original data should be saved as a PDF file. [Compact PDF]: Saves a file with a smaller size than normal PDF format. We recommend this format when you want to reduce file size to enable sending by E-mail etc. [TIFF]: This is one kind of versatile image formats. TIFF format supports multiple pages, in which multi-page documents can be saved as single file. [JPEG]: A file format widely used in digital cameras. Suitable for saving photo data. JPEG format does not support the saving of multiple pages as a single file.
[Page Separation]	When you want to separate a file for each page while the original consists of multiple pages, set [Page Separation] to ON. This is not available when [File Type] is set to [JPEG]. All pages are separated.
