Chapter 5 Saving and exporting 69
Saving to two targets
For instance, you cannot use a multiple converter to save a document to file and also send it in
mail. Use a workflow with two saving steps, or perform two separate saves.
Saving different page ranges
You cannot save different page ranges to different file types, because only one set of selected
pages can exist at saving time. For the same reason, a single workflow cannot be used either.
Perform two separate saves or use two workflows.
Saving to PDF
You have five choices when saving to Portable Document Format (PDF) files. The first four
are presented as Text converters, the last one is listed among the Image converters.
PDF (Normal):
Pages are exported as they appeared in the Text Editor in True Page view. The PDF file can be
viewed and searched in a PDF viewer and edited in a PDF editor.
PDF Edited:
Use this if you have made significant editing changes in the recognition results. You have
three formatting level choices, including True Page. The PDF file can be viewed, searched
and edited.
PDF Searchable Image
The PDF file is viewable only and cannot be modified in a PDF editor. The original images
are exported, but there is a linked text file behind each image, so the text can be searched. A
found word is highlighted in the image.
PDF with image substitutes:
As for PDF (Normal), but words containing reject and suspect characters have image
overlays, so these uncertain words display as they were in the original document. The PDF
file can be viewed, searched and edited.
PDF Image:
The original images are exported. The PDF file is viewable only and cannot be modified in a
PDF editor and text cannot be searched.
Besides the above flavors, you can use other parameters in defining your PDF output by
