Section 8: Saving Documents
• Select the desired PDF type from the drop-down list:
• PDF Image-Text (= PDF Searchable Image). This file type is most commonly used. It contains
two layers: the recognized text, and the original image on top of the text. This way, you have
both access to the recognized text and you still see the original image.
Note: since the image covers the text, any recognition mistakes will not be visible.
• PDF Image. When you select this file type, Readiris doesn't execute the text recognition on
your document. Your PDF file will not be text-searchable, it only contains the image of your
original document.
• PDF Text (Readiris Corporate only). This file type contains the recognized text, but does not
contain the original image of your document. Any images in the original document are
included as graphics in the PDF file.
• PDF Text-Image (Readiris Corporate only). This file type is the opposite of PDF Image-Text. It
contains the original image in the background, and the recognized text on top of the image.
Note: any recognition mistakes will be visible in this format.
The PDF options
Create bookmarks
Bookmarks are types of links inside a PDF document, which contain representative information
about the section they are linked to. Bookmarks give structure to your PDF documents. They are
grouped in the Bookmarks panel in the Navigation pane.
In Readiris, the option Create bookmarks creates a bookmark for each text zone, image zone and
table zone inside a PDF file.
