Technical Information Supported File Types 84
• Break complex page images (lots of text and graphics or elaborate formatting) into
smaller jobs. Draw zones manually or modify automatically created zones and
perform OCR on one page area at a time.
See “Working with zones” on page 40.
• Restart Windows in safe mode and test OmniPage by performing OCR on the included
sample image files.
If you are performing multiple tasks at once, such as recognizing and printing, OCR may take
longer.
