Scanning pages
You can scan a paper document to generate an electronic image. See
Starting OmniPage Pro and Selecting your scanner in chapter 1.
t
To scan pages into OmniPage Pro:
1. Place a page in your scanner. You can scan a stack of pages if you
have an automatic document feeder (ADF).
2. Select one of the scanning modes in the Get Page pop-up menu.
3. Choose Preferences... in the Edit menu and open the Scanner panel
to make sure the appropriate settings are selected for your page.
See page 76. If you want to sequentially scan all pages in an ADF,
make sure that Scan Until Empty is selected. Otherwise, you must
click the Get Page button to scan each subsequent page.
4. Click the Get Page button in the OCR Toolbar.
Pages are scanned in order and the resulting images appear in
Thumbnail view. The first page is displayed in Image view.
Loading image files
You can load JPEG, PDF, PICT and TIFF image files into OmniPage
Pro. An image file is an electronic picture of text, such as a fax or
scanned image, that is saved in an image file format. You can load
more than one file at once. You can also load selected or all pages from
multi-page image files (these can be in TIFF or PDF formats).
