Why convert documentsThere are several primary reasons why it is worthwhile to convert documents to graphics or PDF.

Compatibility and Protection from DistortionDocuments saved in an all-purpose format can be opened on any computer running any operating system. They will alsolook the same on any PC and will not be distorted in any way. This is especially important in document managementsystems, when exchanging electronic documents between different companies, etc.

LongevityUsing an all-purpose graphics format or PDF eliminates the dependence on software type and version when viewing thefiles. Because software is updated continuously, and backward compatibility requirements are not always honored which,in turn, results in the users' needing to resort to legacy software.

Diversity of TasksDocument conversion makes addressing many heterogeneous tasks significantly simpler, such as, online publication,printing press preparation, etc.

UniformityThe use of graphic formats or PDF achieves uniform rendering of documents of different types in document acquisitionand processing systems.

Getting StartedThis Chapter will help you get off to a quick start with the Universal Document Converter. It contains the following sections.

DefinitionsSupported FormatsQuick StartQuick Solutions

Universal Document Converter Getting Started


DefinitionsFile Format. A file format is essentially the data presentation method. Thus, the same image, for instance, may be usedfor different purposes and may, therefore, be represented as different file types: GIF and JPG files are used to liven upweb pages, TIFF is used for printing, etc. The same is true for documents.

Conversion. Conversion is the process of translating a file in one format into a file in a different format.

Virtual Printer. A special driver that is seen and used by the operating system as a printer driver. It enables users to utilizestandard printing functions for different purposes, such as file conversion.

Profile. A group of settings for a certain task saved as an XML file.

Universal Document Converter Definitions


Supported FormatsSource File FormatsAny document may be used as source for the Universal Document Converter: Microsoft Word documents, Adobe PDFfiles, Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, Autodesk AutoCAD drawings, Microsoft PowerPoint presentations, web pages, etc.The only constraint is that your computer must have software installed to open and print the document in question.

Output File FormatsThe Universal Document Converter is able to convert documents to files of the following types: BMP, DCX, GIF, JPEG,PDF, PNG, TIFF, PDF.

BMP (Bitmap): a raster graphic format. It is supported by many applications under DOS, Windows, and OS/2 but is notsupported by MacOS. BMP lends itself to lossless sequential compression using the RLE algorithm. Color bit depth mayvary between 1 and 48 bits per pixel. Large file size is BMP's primary drawback.

DCX: a PCX-based bitmap graphic format. This is essentially multi-page PCX. Uses a fast but inefficient compressionalgorithm unsuitable for images with a lot of detail, such as photographs.

GIF (Graphic Interchange Format): a bitmap graphic format developed specifically for the transmission of images overnetworks. GIF images are stored as lines, and only the format with an indexed color palette is supported. The standardwas developed to support a 256-color palette. The GIF format uses the lossless LZW compression algorithm. Therefore,good compression is achieved for images with lines containing recurring sequences, such as, images with manyhorizontally aligned pixels of the same color.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): a bitmap graphics format designed specifically for compact storage and onlinepublication of photo quality color images. At this time, it is the most widely used format in the world. JPEG comprises alossy image compression algorithm. The degree of compression may be set by the user producing files of different sizesand images of different quality.

PDF (Portable Document Format): a platform-independent electronic document format developed by Adobe Systemsusing a number of capabilities offered by PostScript. Its primary purpose is to present printed matter in an electronicformat because much of the advanced professional printing equipment is able to process PDF files directly.

PNG (Portable Network Graphics): a bitmap graphic format that uses lossless compression. PNG was designed both asan improvement and a replacement for GIF and as a graphic format that may be used without a license.

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format): a bitmap graphic format. It was developed by Aldus in conjunction with Microsoft. It hasbecome popular as a storage format for images with great color bit depth. TIFF is very flexible and can store photographsusing different palettes as well as different color spaces. This format implements support for a number of compressionalgorithms. In addition, it is possible to save TIFF files with no compression.

Recommendations on Using Different FormatsAll graphic formats have unique features, drawbacks, and advantages. Therefore, each is best suited for a particular classof problem.

Photos. Traditionally, JPEG has been used to create, store, and process photographic images. However, it should bekept in mind that this format uses lossy compression. And the higher the compression, the more obvious the various imageartifacts.

Electronic Documents. The most common electronic format for documents is PDF. Thanks to its unique features, it hasbecome the international standard in this area.

Internet Graphics. The two most used online formats are JPEG and GIF. One or the other is normally selected based onthe size of the resulting file. JPEG is better for images with a lot of detail and a large number of hues. While GIF is best forimages with a relatively small number of colors (especially, as part of web site design layouts). The PNG format may alsobe used, which, although less common, is supported by all advanced internet browsers. In addition, PDF files may be usedfor the online publication of price lists, documents, various product catalogues, etc.

Printed Graphics. The TIFF graphic file format is the printing industry's de facto standard. Uncompressed files are usedin certain cases. However, the LZW lossless compression algorithm is most commonly used.

Presentation Graphics. JPEG and PNG are normally used to insert graphic images into presentations. The former is

Universal Document Converter Supported Formats


used for photos and other images with a high degree of detail. while the latter is used for graphs, diagrams, etc.

Animation. The GIF format is used to create graphic animation files.

Special Capabilities. Sometimes, users have a need to address a special problem. A suitable format is then selectedbased on the situation. Thus, much of the legacy or special-purpose software does not support anything other than BMPgraphics files. Therefore, if such software is used, files must be converted into this format.

Universal Document Converter Supported Formats


Quick StartIt is very easy to convert documents using the Universal Document Converter.

Step 1. Start Application and Open File

File Structure. Method for creating output files:


Compression. Compression algorithm for the resulting graphic.

"- Default -": if the bit depth is "Monochrome (1-bit)", CCITT Group 4 compression is used, LZW otherwise."None": no compression.CCIT Group 3: a Huffman lossless compression algorithm using a fixed table. The full name of this algorithm isCCITT Group 3. This indicates that this algorithm was proposed by Standardization Group 3 under the InternationalTelephone and Telegraph Consultative Committee. It replaces uninterrupted sequences of black and white pixels withthe number of such pixels. This sequence, in turn, is compressed using the Huffman fixed-table algorithm. Thealgorithm is best suited for dual-color black-and-white images with large areas of white.CCIT Group 4: a more advanced version of CCITT Group 3. Compression is vertical unlike Group 3 wherecompression is left to right. This algorithm is a common compression method and is applicable to virtually allmonochrome images.LZW : a lossless compression algorithm. It was named after its creators Lempel, Ziv, and Welch. The LZW algorithmwas published by Welch in 1984 as an upgrade to the LZ78 algorithm published by Lempel and Ziv in 1978. When itcame out, it provided better compression for most applications than any other well-known method at the time. Thisalgorithm became the first data compression method to be widely used in computers. LZW compression usesidentical byte sequences. Therefore, it is best suited to the compression of 1-bit black-and-white images as well asgrayscale images without a lot of fine detail.Flate (ZIP): essentially, the deflate lossless compression algorithm (the deflate algorithm is also at the basis of ZIP),i. e. an advanced algorithm which selects a compression method based on file content. The compression enginehas three modes (no compression, sequential LZ77 compression, and modified Huffman compression with standardsequences and sequences created on the fly during compression).

Universal Document Converter TIFF


Availability of various algorithms depends on selected bit depth.

Segmentation. Method for breaking the file up into stripes. The original TIFF standard assumed that the image would besegmented into stripes. This allows the TIFF file to be read as individual stripes which given the small size of each suchstripe can be processed even by computers with small amounts of random-access memory. The standard recommendsthat the stripe not exceed 4 Kbytes (Striped Option). The Single-Stripe option records the entire TIFF image file as asingle stripe. These files are normally more compact. If your intention is to use TIFF files on computers with sufficientlylarge RAM, we recommend that you use the Single-Stripe option. The extended TIFF standard offers the capability tobreak the file up into random rectangular shapes (Tiled Option) rather than into stripes. It should be noted that the tiledmode is not supported by some image renderers. If the - Default - option is selected, the Stripped mode is utilized.

Fill Order . Bit sort order during reassembly: MSB2LSB (bits sorted in ascending order) or LSB2MSB (bits sorted indescending order). Used for compatibility with various facsimile equipment. Utilized with CCIT Group 3 and CCIT Group4 compression algorithms only. If the - Default - option is selected, the MSB2LSB fill order is used.
