Zones and backgrounds
Zones define areas on the page to be processed or ignored. Zones are
rectangular or irregular, with vertical and horizontal sides. Page
images in a document have a background value: process or ignore
(the latter is more typical). Background values can be changed with
the tools shown. Zones can be drawn on page backgrounds with
the tools shown under Zone Types and Properties (see later).
Process areas (in process zones or ba
ckgrounds) are auto-zoned
whe
n they are sent to recognition.
Ignore areas (in ignore zones or backgrounds) are dropped from
processing. No text
is recognized and no image is transferred.

headings, pictures and other elements on a page and draw zones to
enclose them.
You can Auto-zone a whole page or a part of
it. Automatically
drawn zones and template zones have solid borders. Manually
drawn or modified zones have dotted borders.
