Which scanner and file size?

Here you will find more information on which scanner you can use with E-conomic Scanning Module and how large files you scan and e-mail to your E-conomic agreement.

The requirements for scanning with E-conomic are few. Almost all scanners can produce the accepted file formats, which are GIF, JPG / JPEG, TIFF or PDF.

If you use any other file format than PDF, you can only load 1 page at a time. If your document is composed of several pages, you have to load the file page by page.

A few basic tips:

• If you have a small number of documents (let's say 8-10 at a time), you can use any scanner.
• However, if you are having a majour accounting department we recommend proper document scanners such as Kodak i30 Canon DR or Plustek.
• If you work with many documents, the scanner should have a good feeder

Non-professional scanners are basically developed for home and scanning of high quality photos. This is not an advantage when talking about document management in E-conomic. Partly because it slows down the scanning process and partly because the size of the files to be sent to E-conomic, should not be too large.

Up to 10 MB is accepted , but if you have data of this size, it is a good idea to zip the file to prevent timeout.
