Processing Documents Manually

Use the Manual toolbar to process a document step-by-step.

You can use the Manual toolbar functions on a new document or a document that has been partially or completely processed automatically or using the OCR Wizard.

To process your document manually:

  1. Click the Manual tab in the OmniPage Toolbox to display the Manual toolbar.

  2. Set the desired Document Source command in the button's drop-down list.

    You can bring an image into OmniPage Pro by scanning or by loading a file. If you choose to scan your document, make sure Caere Scan Manager is installed and your document is in the scanner.

  3. Set the desired Original Layout and Output Format commands in the button's drop-down list.

    Choose the original layout option that best describes your original document layout, and the output format option that describes how you want your processed document to look.

  4. Set the desired Export Destination command in the button's drop-down list.

    You can save your document, send it as a mail attachment, or copy it to the clipboard for use in other applications.

  5. Choose Options All... in the Tools menu and check that settings are appropriate for your document.

  6. Click each button in the Manual toolbar to perform each task individually.
