Frequently asked questions

Does Focus guarantee the target size?

No. Important regions add data. Focus tries several compression levels and reports the actual size. You can keep your original if the result is not useful.

Are text and digital signatures preserved?

No. Focus creates image-based pages for scanned documents. Searchable text, interactive forms and valid digital signatures are not preserved. A picture of a signature is not a digital signature.

What does protecting a region mean?

Selected regions use higher-resolution, lossless image patches over a more compressed page. This cannot recover detail missing from the source. Review the enlarged comparison; readability is not guaranteed.
