JPEG gives small size outputs as compare uncompressed TIFF. This is probabbly the best for color. Try reducing the resolution to 150-300 dpi.

My HP C4750 scanner will only save a scanned document page as an image, TIFF, JPEG, etc. Always as an image even when I say to save as a Word document. Please tell me how I can overcome this. Doug...

Scanners only save word documents as images there is no way by which a scanner will save a scanned document as a word document. Although there are 3rd party applications which can help convert your scanned items from image to word documents. To get these applications go to google and type "convert PDF to word document" on google and a host of available applications will be displayed go through and download the one which suites your use more.
Hope this solution has been helpful?

I want to save scanned document as a .doc using CanoScan 8400F

Scanners only see millions of dots. Unless it has software to convert a picture into a document, all documents are seen by scanners as pictures made of of millions of dots. Software is available to convert it to a Microsoft Doc format but it is very expensive.

How to scan a document using Canon MX310 to Microsoft Word

you can try it by using the scanner option on the control panel. If you are using windows operating system, go on start menu, select control panel and double click scanners & cameras. Double click the scanner online and start scanning the documents. Save it in the format you want but it is usually default as jpeg.

scanned documents usually saved as .pdf file if you run the scan option directly on the printer. By pressing the SCAN button the printer. So do not use this option if you do not want the documents to be saved as pdf files.
