page is recognized (or proofread, if that was requested), an exporting dialog box appears.

You can specify export any time the program is not busy. If you ask to export a document with unrecognized pages, you will be asked whether they should be recognized first. If you answer No, only results from recognized pages will be exported. If zones have been modified on recognized pages, you will be invited to re-recognize those pages before exporting.

Saving original images

You can save original images to disk in a wide variety of file types. See “File types for opening and saving images” on page 94.

1.Choose Save Image... in the File menu. In the dialog box that appears, select a folder location and a file type for your images. Type in a file name.

2.Select to save the current zone image only, the current page image, selected page images or all images in the document. In the last two cases you can have all images in a single multi-page image file, providing you set TIFF, MAX or DCX as file type. Otherwise each image is placed in a separate file. OmniPage Pro adds numerical suffixes to the file name you provide, to generate unique file names.

3.Click OK to save the image(s) as specified. Zones and recognized text are not saved with the file. If possible, the file is saved as displayed: that is black-and-white, grayscale or color. Black-and-white images are saved at their original resolutions. Grayscale and color images are reduced to approximately 150 dpi.

To see the image size and original resolution of an image, hover the cursor over its thumbnail in the Image Panel.

You can save your document to five variants of PDF. Two of these save the original images, the others save recognition results. See the following sections.
