Ignore zone
Use this to draw an ignore zone, to define a page area you do not want transferred to
the Text Editor.
Text zone
Use this to draw a text zone. Draw it over a single block of text. Zone contents will
be treated as flowing text, without columns being found. Use it for texts using the
Latin, Greek or Cyrillic alphabets and for horizontal texts in the Asian languages.
Vertical Asian text zone
Use this to draw text zones for vertical text in Japanese or Chinese. Zones should be
rectangular.
Vertical left-rotated text zone
Use this to draw text zones for vertical text that is left rotated (non-Asian languages
only). The zones should be rectangular.
Vertical right-rotated text zone
Use this to draw a text zone for vertical text that is right rotated (non-Asian
languages only). The zones should be rectangular.
Table zone
Use this to have the zone contents treated as a table. Table grids can be
automatically detected, or placed manually. Table zones should be rectangular.
Vertical texts in tables cannot be zoned manually – they can be auto-detected in
gridded tables.
Graphic zone
Use this to enclose a picture, diagram, drawing, signature or anything you want
transferred to the Text Editor as an embedded image, and not as recognized text.
Form zone
Use this to enclose an area of your document containing form elements such as a
checkbox, radio button, text field or anything you want transferred to the Text
Editor as a form element. Afterwards, in True Page, you can edit form layout, and
modify the properties of form elements. Form zones are available in OmniPage
Professional only.
