How to save the contents of a particular zone
Besides saving entire documents, you can also save the contents of particular zones:
Ctrl-click the zone you want to recognize.
Then click Copy as ...
The results are copied to the clipboard. You can now paste them into other applications.
Note that you can also send content directly to Evernote, if the connection is configured correctly.
How to separate documents
(This section applies to Readiris Corporate only)
When you are scanning entire stacks of paper - on a scanner equipped with a document feeder for instance
- or loading many image files into Readiris, it can be useful to indicate where one document ends and
another begins. That way, Readiris can generate a separate output file for each document. This avoids your
having to scan only one document at a time.
Example
Let's say you're scanning a stack of 30 pages. The first 10 pages belong to Document 1, pages 11 to 20
belong to Document 2 and pages 21 to 30 belong to Document 3. If you indicate that your stack of paper in
fact contains 3 documents, Readiris will generate 3 separate output files.
How to separate paper documents
With Readiris, there are 2 ways to separate paper documents. You can do this by means of:
blank pages
In this case you simply put a blank page between two sheets of paper to indicate where the new
document begins. Note that you can delete all blank pages simultaneously after recognition should
this be necessary: click the command Delete Blank Pages on the Process menu to do so.
cover pages containing a barcode
In this case you can, for instance, put a barcode sticker on each first page of a document.
Note: you could also skip this step and separate the scanned images manually in Readiris. See How to
separate image files below.
To access the document separation options:
Click the Settings menu and click Document Separation and Indexing.
Indicate which separation method you are going to use: Detect blank pages or Detect cover
pages with a barcode.
When you are using barcode pages as cover page, you can indicate specific data your barcodes
should contain in order for Readiris to consider them to be barcode pages. Insert your company
name for instance, I.R.I.S. in our case, in the field containing. Only barcodes that contain the data
'I.R.I.S.' will be marked as cover pages and will be used to split up your document batch into
