PDF Multi-Resolution Image /
Enhanced PDF Image Conversion
 |
|
Smallest file size and best quality
for text mixed with color and grayscale images |
 |
The Enhanced PDF Image or the
Multi-Resolution PDF Image files combine monochrome
(black and white) text zones with 24-bit color or
grayscale images for photographs and diagrams. Both
monochrome and color/grayscale images are represented on
the same page for the best-possible replication of the
paper original. This process delivers optimum
readability and image quality at a far smaller file-size
than any competing technique.
Benefits:
-
Smaller files.
Most imaging bureaus deliver color by the page, not
the image. Full-page color scans mean huge files
and, often, inferior resolution and image quality
due to the sacrifices made to keep the file size
down.
-
Superior text quality.
Since the text area of the image is rendered in
higher resolutions and with lossless compression,
on-screen and printed text quality is vastly
superior in Multi-Resolution files.
Typical applications for this format
include documents requiring total graphical fidelity to
the paper original while maintaining low file size.
