I am working on a project that requires scanning over 100,000 pages in 24bit color. The client wants these pages scanned in color for archival purposes. I am then taking the files and creating PDFs.
The majority of the pages are just black & white.
For scanning, I am using the Xerox Digipath 3.0 system which, unfortunately, does not automatically recognize color vs bitonal content (it requires manually changing the settings from color to bi-tonal). This is not an option because of the time that it takes.
The result is a pdf file that is larger than it needs to be.
Is anyone aware of a utility that can (in batch mode) look a folder of tiffs (or at a PDF), detect wether or not there is any color on the page and if there isn't, convert that page to bi-tonal?
Thanks in advance!
Jeff
