Installing OmniPage
OmniPage 18’s installation program takes you through installation with instructions on every
screen.
Before installing OmniPage:
• Close all other applications, especially anti-virus programs.
• Log into your computer with administrator privileges.
• If you own a previous version of OmniPage, or if you are upgrading from demonstration
software or an OmniPage Special Edition, you must uninstall that product first.
To install OmniPage:
1. Download the program file and choose Run when the download is completed, or insert the
OmniPage CD-ROM in your CD-ROM drive. The installation program should start
automatically. If it does not start, locate your CD-ROM drive in Windows Explorer and
double-click the Autorun.exe program at the top-level of the CD-ROM.
2. Choose a language to use during installation. Accept the End-User License Agreement and
enter the serial number you receive by e-mail or find on the CD envelope.
3. Choose a complete or a custom installation. A complete installation installs all RealSpeak
®
Text-to-Speech language modules (currently 9). Custom installation lets you exclude or add
modules. To exclude a module, click its down arrow and select ‘This feature will not be
available’.
4. Follow the instructions on each screen to install the software. All files needed for scanning
are copied automatically during installation.
Unless deselcted in the OmniPage Professional installation, Nuance PDF Create 7 installation
starts as soon the installation of OmniPage is completed. Document-to-document conversions
depend on PDF Create being present.
