However, a high resolution setting will result in a large
file, and if the file is too large, transmission may not be possible. In
this event, reduce the number of pages scanned or take other measures
to decrease the file size.

Flate Compression
After compressing a PDF file by JPEG compression, this function
compresses the file by lossless compression to further reduce the
file size by a small amount. When the data contains significant
solid color, this increases the effectiveness of compression.
When sending a PDF file, Flate Compression enables greater
reduction of the file size than conventional methods.
If the recipient's PDF viewer does not support Flate Compression,
the recipient may not be able to view the PDF file. In this case,
Flate Compression can be disabled.
