Choosing a Form Usage Option
This section describes form usage: how it affects the forms you scan or
import as image files, how to select form usage, and how to change it.
This section contains the following topics:
• Choosing a Form Usage Option
• Where to Select Form Usage Options
• Changing Form Usage
Form usage affects the way you can use a form once it is in OmniForm.
Decide how you will use a form in OmniForm before you scan or import
it: as a designed form, as an original form, or as a non-designed form image
as described below.
OmniForm uses Logical Form Recognition (LFR) to identify text,
rectangles, lines, and fillable areas when it designs a form during
scanning or import.
Designed Form
Use this option if you want to be able to:
• have full control over a form's design
• edit all form elements in Design View
• create new objects in Design View
• fill fields in Fill View
A designed form does not retain graphics during Logical Form
Recognition, but you can import graphics.
Original Form
Use this option if you want to be able to:
• have partial control over a form's design
• maintain a form's original look
• draw new fillable objects on the form in Design View
• fill fields in Fill View
