Using Multiple Converters - ScanSoft OMNIPAGE PRO 14 Manual

Custom converters are useful for repeated tasks, such as publishing a
weekly magazine. Then all recognized pages can be exported with their
formatting tailored to their intended use. You can also create a set of
customized converters for a given file type defining saving options for
each output formatting level, for example: RTF No Formatting, RTF
Retain Fonts and Paragraphs, RTF Flowing Page and RTF True Page.
You can change converter options without saving anything to file. Call
the Export Converters dialog box from the Tools menu. Three groups
appear: Text converters, Image converters and Multiple converters. Select
the desired converter and click the Options button. In this case, the
Apply button is not available.

Using multiple converters

Multiple converters allow you to export to two or more file types in one
export step. Choose Multiple in the saving dialog box:
The program has four sample multiple converters: Image PDF and TIFF,
Word and TIFF, Word and TXT, PDF and Word. When you choose
one, your pages will be saved to both file types using the file name you
provide. The extension differentiates the files. To save the files to
different folders, click Converter Options... and specify sub-folders. All
other settings are taken from the current converter options for each file
type in the multiple converter.
To make your own multiple converter, open the Export Converters
dialog box from the Tools menu. Choose the heading Multiple
converters and click New... to receive a list of all text converters, followed
by all image converters. Checkmark the desired ones. Optionally specify
sub-folder paths for each file type. Click New Converter..., specify a
name and click OK.
The sample converters and those you create are dependent converters.
Suppose you make a multiple converter to save to HTML and WordPad.
