The Image Panel

When this displays the current page image, the Image toolbar is available. All page images have a background value: process or ignore. Zones can be manually drawn on page images, or can be placed automatically after recognition. There are five zone types: Process, Ignore, Text, Table, Graphics. Areas inside process zones and on a process background outside other zones have zones automatically drawn and their zone types determined during processing. See “Zones and backgrounds” on page 53.

If the current page image is hidden, the thumbnails appear in rows to make the best use of the available space.

The Text Editor

This displays recognition results in any of three formatting levels:

XNo Formatting view (NF)

XRetain Fonts and Paragraphs view (RFP)

XTrue Page (TP)

True Page retains page layout using text, table and picture boxes, and frames. It can display multicolumn areas, to show text blocks that can be treated as flowing columns at export time.

True Page is also an export formatting level, along with Flowing Page that retains page layout without boxes and frames. See “The editor display and views” on page 64.
