saved to zone templates. See page 53. Irregular zones can be drawn and zones split and joined more simply, without the need for separate tools. See page 57.

XBetter proofing and verifying

The Proofing dialog box now shows suspect words in a wider context. A dynamic verifier can stay open as text is being checked, with the image display and window tracking the editing position. See page 65.

XFormatting levels for display and saving

There are three formatting levels for Text Editor display. See page 64. The output formatting level is now chosen at export time; the choices depend on the specified file type. An export choice ‘Flowing Page’ is an improved version of the previous ‘Retain Flowing Columns’ view. It preserves page layout without boxes and frames whenever possible, so text can flow between columns. See page 81.

XSuperior page analysis

The transfer of table formatting has improved, in particular the detection of tables without gridlines in original pages. Web and e-mail addresses can be detected and transferred to the Text Editor; hyperlinks can be inserted. Reading order can now be viewed and changed after recognition in the Text Editor’s True Page® view. See from page 72.

XImproved PDF handling

OmniPage Pro 12 searches background text in PDFs it opens, to deliver higher recognition accuracy. A new file type ‘PDF Edited’ allows good format retention on pages that were modified in the Text Editor after recognition.

XAdvanced saving options

A wider range of saving options is offered for each output file type. User-defined output file types can be created with customized settings. See page 82. If your edition of OmniPage Pro 12 includes the new saving formats XML and eBook, see page 95.
