Frames have gray borders and enclose one or more boxes. They are
placed when a visible border is detected in an image. Format frame
and table borders and shading with a shortcut menu or by choosing

boxes. They are auto-detected and show which text will be treated

Reading order can be displayed and changed. Click the Show
reading order tool in the Formatting toolbar to have the order
shown by arrows. Click again to remove the arrows.
Click the Change reading order tool for a set of reordering
buttons in place of the Formatting toolbar. A changed order is
applied in Plain Text and Formatted Text views. It modifies
the way the cursor moves through a page when it is exported
as True Page.
On-the-fly editing
This allows you to modify a recognized page through re-zoning,
without having to re-process the whole page. When on-the-fly
editing is enabled, zone changes (deleting, drawing, resizing,
changing type) immediately make changes in the recognized page.
Conversely, when you modify elements in the Text Editor’s True
Page view, this changes the zones on that page.
Two linked tools on the Image toolbar control on-the-fly zoning.
One of these tools is always active whenever no recognition is in
progress.
Click this to activate on-the-fly editing. The red signal shows
there are no stored zoning changes.
