• WAV

WAV stands for Waveform Audio File Format. It is a Microsoft and IBM audio file format.

When you save the recognition results in this format you can have them read out to you

thanks to the Windows Text to Speech engine.

Note: a number of older file formats are supported as well.

Note: RTF files created by Readiris can also be opened in the web-based office applications. When

using such applications make sure to select the layout option Retain Word and Paragraph

Formatting.

Adding Properties to Documents

The documents you process can be complemented by properties. This means you can apply key

"tags" to your documents, such as the author, the document type, the scanning date, etc. This way,

you can retrieve them more easily once they have been stored.

To add properties to documents:

• Scan or open your documents into Readiris.

• Select the desired output format, and make sure the option Save as file is activated.

• Click Start to save your documents.

• In the Save As window that opens, click Properties to add properties to your documents.

• Fill in the properties, then click OK to save them.
