<h4>Reduce 16 bit image to 8 bit:</h4>
<blockquote>
When the image is scanned with 16 bit/color then xsane does reduce the
color depth to 8 bit/color before saving the image.
</blockquote>

<h4>Save 16 bit pnm in ascii format:</h4>
<blockquote>
In general 16 bit pnm images are stored in binary format.
When you want to create 16 bit ascii pnm images then enable this option.
But keep in mind that you get huge files!
</blockquote>

<h4>Save posctscript zlib compressed (ps level 3):</h4>
<blockquote>
Poscsript level 2 does not know about zlib compressed images.
For postscript level 2 the images are stored in A85 compression.
When you want to create zlib compressed (deflate) postscript files 
then enable this option. But keep in mind that you will not be able
to print such files on postscript level 2 printers!
</blockquote>

<h4>Save PDF zlib compressed:</h4>
<blockquote>
PDF images can be stored in A85 compression or in zlib compression.
When you want to create zlib compressed (deflate) PDF files 
then enable this option.
</blockquote>

<h4>JPEG image quality:</h4>
<blockquote>
If the image is saved in <i>jpeg</i> format this value defines
the quality of the image. Low values mean low quality and low file size,
high values mean high quality and high file size.
</blockquote>

<h4>PNG image compression:</h4>
<blockquote>
If the image is saved in <i>png</i> format this value defines
the compression level. The quality of the image keeps the same, low values
mean low compression, large files and low compression time. High values
mean high compression, smaller files and high compression time.
</blockquote>

<h4>TIFF zip compression rate:</h4>
<blockquote>
If the image is saved in zlib compressed (deflate) <i>tiff</i> format this value defines
the compression level. The quality of the image keeps the same, low values
mean low compression, large files and low compression time. High values
mean high compression, smaller files and high compression time.
</blockquote>

<h4>TIFF 16 bit image compression:</h4>
<blockquote>
If the image is saved in 16 bit/color <i>tiff</i> format this selection defines
if xsane does <i>pack bits</i> or <i>no compression</i> is used.
</blockquote>

<h4>TIFF 8 bit image compression:</h4>
<blockquote>
If the image is saved in 8 bit/color <i>tiff</i> format this selection defines
if xsane does <i>pack bits</i>, use <i>JPEG DCT compression</i> or <i>no compression</i>
is used.
</blockquote>

<h4>TIFF lineart image compression:</h4>
<blockquote>
If the image is saved in lineart <i>tiff</i> format this selection defines
if xsane does <i>pack bits</i>, use <i>CCIT Group 4 Fax compression</i>,
<i>CCIT Group 3 Fax compression</i>, <i>CCIT 1D Huffman compression</i>,
<i>JPEG DCT compression</i> or <i>no compression</i>
is used.
