Select True Page in the Output Format drop-down list if you want to keep the document's original appearance. This will produce the most precise formatting, but will be more difficult to edit.
Select Retain Flowing Columns in the Output Format drop-down list if you want to retain the text flow between paragraphs and columns. This will produce formatting less precise than True Page, but will be easier to edit.
Click the Font Matching button in the OCR tab of the Options dialog box to match the fonts you want OmniPage Pro to use for recognized text with the fonts in your original document.
Make sure all parts of the page that you want recognized are included within zones, if you are drawing zones manually.
Make sure the zone order is acceptable. The numbered order of zones determines the order in which text will be placed on a recognized page. See Reordering Zones for more information.
Select Look for tables when creating zones automatically in the Tables tab of the Options dialog box.
Make sure tables on the page are within table zones.
Save to a file type, such as Rich Text Format (RTF), that supports the formatting.
Text formatting (such as bold and italics) is retained if the application that you save to supports it. Otherwise, only plain text will be retained. Graphics are retained if the application supports bitmap images.
