Input image files can have resolutions up to 600 dpi, but 300 dpi (both
horizontally and vertically) is recommended for optimum OCR accuracy.
The program stores black-and-white images at their original resolution,
but grayscale and color images are not usually saved above 150 dpi.
Hover the cursor over an image for a popup window showing the size and
resolution of the original image.
Note
If you try to save a black-and-white image to JPEG format, the
program will offer conversion to grayscale. With TIFF G3 and G4 it will
offer conversion to black-and-white.
