Checking OCR Results in Microsoft Word
You can check for OCR errors directly in Microsoft Word 7 or Microsoft
Word 97 if you have those versions installed on your computer.
To enable this feature, you must select settings in the
Microsoft Word
section of OmniPage Pro’s Options dialog box. See “Microsoft Word
Settings” on page 53 for more information.
Make sure the
*.doc
file extension is associated with the version of
Word you plan to use. Please refer to your Windows documentation for
more information on associating file extensions with applications.
To check and correct errors in Microsoft Word:
1 Perform OCR on your document and then save it as the
appropriate file type:
• Save as
Word for Windows 7.0
if you are using that version.
• Save as

if you are using that version.
2 Open the document in Microsoft Word.
The document must be opened on a system that has OmniPage Pro
installed.
