For me it depends on what I'm scanning and the priority of the scan (text, color, image). For images I use JPEG to conserve detail without having files that are too big. For drawings or blueprints I use PNG. For multipage scans like contracts I use PDF. There is an experimental branch that add a headless SANE (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanner_Access_Now_Easy) source support (https://gitlab.com/mayan-edms/mayan-edms/tree/feature/sane_source), this would allow for scanning documents directly into Mayan straight from the scanner and not having to use a separate program. It is a proof of concept but if improved could be added in the next version.
