Settings Guidelines
OmniPage Pro Settings 57
As much as possible
Keep font characteristics,
paragraph formatting, column
formatting and graphic positioning
Recommendations
• Select
True Page
in the
Page Format
settings to
retain the original appearance of a page
using frames. The formatting will be precise
but will be more difficult to edit.
• Select
Retain flowing columns
in the
Page
Format
settings if your page contains multiple
columns and you want text to flow between
paragraphs and columns in your target
application. The formatting may be less
precise than
True Page
but will be easier to
edit.
Please note
:
The
Retain flowing columns
setting
uses frames when necessary to maintain column
formatting and graphic positioning. Although
frames will appear in the text viewer, only required
frames, such as frames around graphics, will be
exported.
• Make sure all parts of the page are included
within zones. Any part not enclosed within a
zone is ignored during OCR and will not
appear in the recognized document.
• Select
Retain graphics
in the Save As... dialog
box.
• Save to the file format of your target word
processing application for the best results.
If you, or the eventual recipient of a file, do
not have the exact application, saving to a RTF
format will retain some text formatting, such as
bold and italics.
