Text and image editing

OmniPage Pro has a WYSIWYG Text Editor, providing many editing facilities. These work very similarly to those in leading word processors.

Editing character attributes

In all views except No Formatting view, you can change the font type, size and attributes (bold, italic, underlined) for selected text. Use the Formatting toolbar or the Font dialog box from the Format menu. The latter also offers subscripts, superscripts and colored text or backgrounds.

In No Formatting view, use the Formatting toolbar to specify one font type and size to be applied to the whole document. This is not used for export, nor transferred to other views; their previous settings are restored.

Open the Font Matching dialog box from the OCR panel of the Options dialog box before OCR, to specify which fonts to use for texts entering the Text Editor.

Editing paragraph attributes

In all views except No Formatting view, you can change the alignment of selected paragraphs and apply bulleting to paragraphs. Use the Formatting toolbar or the Paragraph dialog box from the Format menu. The latter allows you to modify indents, line spacing and spacing
