Proofing and Editing
Recognition results are placed in the Text Editor. These can be recognized texts, tables, forms
and embedded graphics. This WYSIWYG (What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get) editor is
detailed in this chapter. Asian text handling is in some respects different from other languages.
See “Asian language recognition” on page 48.
The Editor Display and Formatting Levels
The Text Editor displays recognized texts and can mark words that were suspected during
recognition with red, wavy underlines. They are displayed with red characters in the OCR
Proofreader.
A word may be suspect because it was not found in any active dictionary: standard, user or
Ultimate. It may also be suspect as a result of the OCR process, even if it is found in the
dictionary
. If the uncertainty stems from certain characters in the word, these are shown with a
yellow highlight, both in the Editor and the OCR Proofreader.
Choose to have non-dictionary words marked or not in the Proofing panel of the Options
dialog box. All markers can be shown or hidden as selected in the T
ext Editor panel of the
Options dialog box. You can also show or hide non-printing characters and header/footer
indicators. The Text Editor panel also lets you define a unit of measurement for the program
and a word wrap setting for use in all Text Editor formatting levels except Plain Text.
OmniPage can display pages with three levels of formatting. Y
ou can switch freely between
them with the three buttons at the bottom left of the Text Editor or from the View menu.
