The Easy Loader is by default on a tab that toggles with the Quick Convert Options panel. A
Help panel can be added, but further panels are not available in this view. You can change tabs
to separate panels and minimize them, as in other views.
After loading a file, you should convert it before loading the next file. When an image
conversion is finished, you do not need to explicitly close the image; just load a new file.
The Easy Loader in Quick View provides an additional feature: ‘one-click’ processing.
Choose the Easy Loader sub-menu in the Process menu and choose either Load Files or Get
and Convert. When the latter is chosen, multiple files can be selected – these files are loaded,
recognized and saved using the current settings. For this, set the output file names to be the
same as the source file names. See
Chapter 4, page 26 and the Help for details.
The Quick View Page Image panel includes the Quick Convert toolbar, offering the most
useful image handling operations. To access advanced functionality, such as image file saving,
SET tools, on-the-fly zoning, zone reordering and manual zone drawing for vertical text, a
different view should be used.
Custom views
For a custom view, arrange the panels and toolbars as you wish, then choose Window >
Custom Views > Manage. Click Add and name your view. Your screen layouts will be
displayed in the Custom Views submenu with a checkmark beside the active one. Resetting to
a default is not available for custom views.
Changing views
Use the Window menu to change views. Panels are shown or hidden and arranged as they
were when the chosen view was last used. The Help topic on display remains unchanged
regardless of view. Easy Loader retains its file location regardless of view and the Workflow
Status continues to display information on the last workflow run. On program restart, Help
displays the Welcome topic, Easy Loader the default folder location and Workflow status is
empty.
The Toolbars
The program has eleven main toolbars. Use the View menu to show, hide or customize them.
Status bar texts at the bottom edge of the OmniPage program window explain the purpose of
all tools.
