Setting Up an Automatic Input/Output System
If you regularly receive documents that need to be converted to text,
such as fax files, you can set up an input/output system to facilitate OCR
processing. You can specify an input folder that OmniPage Pro will
check every 30 seconds. When files are detected in the folder, they are
added to the processing queue and recognized after the specified time.
Recognized files are then placed in the designated output folder.
To set up an automatic input/output system:
1 Choose
Schedule OCR...
