To the best of my recollection the size of a scanned document is 8.5" x 11" = 40KB at 100dpi for faxing resolution. (It's like a full page of text, but not OCR scanned. It treats the whole document as a large graphic image). When I said I could edit the image, I meant I could view the image in a window using LeadTools and then edit the information such as date of document, date scanned, comments and such on the form where the document is viewed in a LeadTools window. You can also do multi-page documents and save them in several multi-document formats. I save mine as .PCX and .DCX for multi-page so I can use a third-party FaxPlus software to convert saved .PCX files into .BMP format for faxing. And that does work. It tooks lots of trial and error between the two third-party products to get the right image size (height, width, resolution, etc.) for faxing.

Other scanned sizes saved in .PCX format = 46KB at 105dpi, 50KB at 110pdi, 53KB at 115dpi, 57KB at 120dpi, 64Kb at 125dpi, 90KB at 150dpi. I don't remember the sizes at 200dpi and 300dpi, but it was cost prohibitive and too slow for document management, handling and faxing, printing, etc. I found that 115dpi was about the lowest setting I could go for the best of the worst quality. It was not very legible at 100dpi depending upon the scanner. If I use an old Mustek scanner (300dpi avg.) the 100dpi setting and faxing is very legible. On the other hand, if I use the new HP ScanJet 6250C at 100dpi, the result when saved and faxed is poor, only can make out a few words. So depending upon the scanner I am using, I have to save at alternating resolutions, but the Fax program I use seems to compensate and send either document at 100dpi in legible output to a fax machine.

The documents I referenced scanning above are like preprinted legal documents, but not legal size. They are legal forms on 8.5" x 11" size paper. And the printing is very small to begin with. Stuff like parental permission forms, contract/business agreements. Lots of legalese.
