Abstract

An image processing apparatus includes: a processor configured to receive selection of one of options including a first-kind option and a second-kind option, and receive designation of a saving format and a compression level; acquire scan data generated; and generate a compressed file by compressing the scan data, wherein in a case where the first-kind option is selected and where a specific saving format is designated as the saving format, the processor configured to generate the compressed file by using a first compression scheme, regardless of the designated compression level. In a case where the second-kind option is selected and where the specific saving format is designated as the saving format, the processor configured to select one compression scheme from the first compression scheme and the second compression scheme, according to the designated compression level, and generate the compressed file by using the selected compression scheme.
