The default settings are sufficient for most of the use cases, but they can be adjusted as needed.

The settings are mostly self-explanatory. However, it is recognized that an individual name should be assigned to the file.

Searchable PDF:

If the document contains mainly text and you want to use it, e.g., copy some phrases, you should make it searchable. (OCR). Activate the tab „Ablage“ and choose „Dateiformat“.

You can switch from „nur Bild“ to „Durchsuchbar“ and select the language of the text.

By selecting this option, the duration of scanning an image will be a lot longer.
