The source of page images for TextBridge can be your scanner or
it can be image files. TextBridge can recognize the following types
of image file formats:
Image File Format
Windows bitmap
PCX
Multi-page PCX used in some fax
programs
Tag image file format (including
Alacrity TIFF)
Delrina WinFax fax image files
eXtended image file
Image files can be black and white (binary), grayscale, or color.
TextBridge can process images in resolutions from 72 to 900 dots
per inch (dpi). Recognition results are generally better from
grayscale images than binary images. For the most accurate
results, we recommend scanning grayscale images at 200 dpi. For
better results on difficult documents, we recommend scanning
grayscale images at 300 dpi; however, this requires more
processing time.

latest list of supported input image file formats.
