4.Choose in the Standard toolbar or Options in the Tools menu and check that settings are appropriate for your document. You can, for instance, specify recognition languages and whether you want to proofread the document or not. See “Settings” on page 31.

5.Click the Start button or choose Start auto-processing in the Process menu. Each page of the document is processed and finished one after the other. The program may perform tasks simultaneously, for instance it may start loading and recognizing a new page as you proofread the previous page.

Stopping and restarting automatic processing

Stop: When automatic processing is in progress, the Start button becomes Stop. Click it to interrupt automatic processing. You may do this if you find that some settings need to be changed.

Restart: When automatic processing is stopped, the Start button is restored. Click it to restart processing. The Automatic Processing dialog box lets you specify what you want to do:

XFinish processing unrecognized and unproofed pages and then export the results.

XExport an already saved document again, maybe with changes, to a different file type, name or location, or with a different formatting level.

XAdd more pages from the same source or a different source, with changed or unchanged settings.

XRe-process all pages to discard all recognition results and re- recognize all pages in the document with different settings. You can specify auto-zoning or a template file. You may want to do this if an unsuitable setting caused poor results on all pages. An example is incorrect language choice, resulting in almost all words marked suspect during proofing. This option lets you perform re-recognition without having to scan or load or rezone all the images again.
