Defining the source of page images
There are two possible image sources: from image files and from a
scanner. There are two main types of scanners: flatbed or sheetfed.
A scanner may have a built-in or added Automatic Document
Feeder (ADF), which makes it easier to scan multi-page documents.
The images from scanned documents can be input directly into
OmniPage or may be saved with the scanner’s own software to an
image file, which OmniPage can later open.
Input from image files
You can create image files from your own scanner, or receive them
by e-mail or as fax files. OmniPage 16 can open a wide range of
image file types. Select Load Files in the Get Pages drop-down list.
Files are specified in the Load Files dialog box. This appears when
you start automatic processing. In manual processing, click the Get
Page button or use the Process menu. The lower part of the dialog
box provides advanced settings, and can be shown or hidden.
The minimum width or height for an image file is 16 by 16 pixels; the
maximum is 8400 pixels (71cm or 28 inches at the resolution 201 to
600 dpi). See online Help for pixel limits.
In OmniPage Professional 16, files can also be imported
from FTP locations, Microsoft SharePoint, SharePoint
2003, 2007, or ODMA sources.
