IMPORTANT
If [TIFF/PDF(Auto)] is selected, even if [Optimize PDF for Web] is set to 'On' in Generate File in Common in Function Settings (Settings/Registration), the settings become inactive. (See "Optimize PDF for Web.")
If you select [TIFF/PDF(Auto)], [TIFF/XPS(Auto)], [TIFF/JPEG(Auto)], or [JPEG] as the file format:
Press [OK].
If you select [TIFF/PDF(Auto)] or [TIFF/XPS(Auto)], the [Divide into Pages] mode is not available.
If you select [TIFF/JPEG(Auto)] or [JPEG], [Divide into Pages] is set to 'On'.
If you select [PDF], [XPS], or [TIFF] as the file format:
Specify whether to divide your documents into separate pages → press [OK].
If you want to separate multiple images and send them as separate files, each of which consists of only one page, press [Divide into Pages].
If you want to send multiple images as a single file without dividing them, do not press [Divide into Pages].
