Sending a Traced and Smoothed PDF

This mode enables you to convert the text and line drawings of a scanned image to scalable
outline data. The extracted outline data can be used in Adobe Illustrator. The smoothing
process can also be applied to the text of the outline data, so it has less of a jagged edge when
seen on a PC monitor or in print.
If you select [Trace & Smooth] as the PDF file format, [Compact] is automatically set to 'On'.
You can also set the OCR (Text Searchable) mode. The Traced and Smoothed mode cannot
be set by itself. If you select [Trace & Smooth], [PDF (Trace)] is displayed as the file format on
the Send Basic Features screen.
IMPORTANT
• If you set the Trace & Smooth mode, the machine automatically recognizes which parts of the document
are text or line drawings. The machine may not recognize which parts of the scanned document are text
and line drawings correctly, depending on the scanned document.
• If you set the Trace & Smooth mode, smoothing is only performed on the areas of the document that are
correctly recognized as text.
• The text and background of a PDF containing outline data may become misaligned when opened in
Adobe Illustrator, depending on the version of Adobe Illustrator used to open the PDF.
• You cannot send a traced and smoothed PDF in any of the following cases:
- If the colour mode for the document is Black-and-White
- If the colour mode for the document is Full Colour/Grayscale (Automatic Colour Selection) and the
resolution is set to other than 300 dpi
- If the document is a long strip original (432 mm or longer)
NOTE
This mode is available only if the optional Universal Send PDF Advanced Feature Set
(standard-equipped for the iR C4580i/iR C4080i) is activated.
