Importing With Form Assistant
This section describes how to use both Form Assistant and the Scan
Form... command to import an image file as a recognized OmniForm
form.
OmniForm can import and recognize black-and-white forms in either
PCX or TIFF format. Image resolution must be 200, 300, or 400 dots per
inch (dpi). If you have a fax modem, for example, you can receive a
faxed form and use the fax program's software to save the file in PCX or
TIFF format. OmniForm offers the same import options for image files
as it does for scanned forms.
