Workflow Assistant; Creating Workflows - ScanSoft OMNIPAGE PRO 14 Manual

formats using default settings: Word, Excel, PDF, TXT and
WordPerfect. Only workflows with run-time prompting for input files
are listed here.
Pressing Stop while a workflow is running pauses it. Click Start to
resume processing. If you pause a workflow, maybe do some manual
processing, and then save the document as an OmniPage Document,
when you later open that OmniPage Document, the interrupted
workflow will use the OPD as input and finish the processing.

Workflow Assistant

This allows you to create and modify workflows. It is also used to create
and modify Batch Manager jobs; see the next section. The Assistant offers
a selection of steps, each represented by an icon. When you choose a step
with settings, clicking Next brings up a dialog box allowing you to check
and change them. You click Next again to receive a new set of step icons.
At any moment in the process, the Assistant offers icons for all steps that
are logically possible at that point.
