low quality tif out images

Post by nedilo »

Hi,

The tif images that scantailor realeses me after the workflow are pretty low quality. Not comfortable for reading. I do not understand if the JPG images that i input are not good enough, although it would be great if the tif ones where same quality and resolution. Is the problem in the JPG ones or it can be somewhere else?
thanks
cday

I'm not a ScanTailor user but the quality of the TIFF version of a JPEG image should be similar, the filesize will normally be much larger except for black and white images with appropriate compression. But if the JPEG images are colour or grayscale as they normally will be, and the output TIFF images are black and white, there will normally be a noticeable decrease in quality unless the image resolution is high, though.

Could you attach or upload an example input JPEG image, and the resulting output TIFF image?
