Different application programs can be linked to the [OCR], [Photo-1], [Photo-2], and [PDF] buttons. For instructions on linking application programs, see [External Program] ([Mail Program] for [Mail] button) for each button.
The [Photo-1] and [Photo-2] button names can be changed. Clicking the text below the button icon turns on the editing mode, allowing you to input a new name with the keyboard. Enter up to eight characters and press the [Enter] or [Return] key when finished.
If you check [Save to a Subfolder with Current Date] on [Mail], [OCR], [Save], [Photo-1], [Photo-2], and [PDF] windows, the images are saved as follows:
Windows: The image files are named in the order they are saved regardless of which folder they are located in. For example, if you saved an image file with the name [Image0001.JPG] in the [2006-01-15] folder, the next image is saved with the name [Image0002.JPG] even if it is saved in the [2006-01-16] folder.
Macintosh: The image files are named in the order they are saved within the same folder. For example, if you saved an image file with the name [Image0001.JPG] in the [2006-01-15] folder, the next image is also saved with the name [Image0001.JPG] if it is saved in the [2006-01-16] folder.
