Key items to remember ● File size limit is 4 MB. ● File type must either .jpg or .pdf. ● Make sure to always click "New" to upload an additional document into your existing Custom Agency Document. If not, it will override your existing upload. ● Scan in your documents (based on file type) and lock the document quickly to prevent user error. o When scanning images, the scan quality must be considered. This setting is measured in dots-per-inch (DPI) and indicates how many sections the scanned image will be broken into within each square inch of space. A low DPI setting will result in a low resolution image (with a small file size), while a high DPI setting will result in a high resolution image (with a much larger file size). o A scan quality between 200-300 DPI will be sufficient for most documents. Although, depending on the scanner and software, this may be the maximum setting that is allowed for the scan quality. |
