Setting job preferences
For TextBridge Pro, the job preferences shown in Figure 4–1 help
to define the features of a specific document and how you want it
to be processed. Table 4–1 describes job preferences and how to
use them.
Table 4–1. Job Preferences
Input Layout These settings inform TextBridge Pro about the
column layout of the original document, and
whether it contains pictures.
Select Text: One column for simple one-column
documents without pictures, cell tables, or
spreadsheets.
Select Text and pictures: One column for one-
column documents that contain straight text and
pictures. TextBridge Pro will perform a pre-
processing step to detect picture locations, and
prevent OCR in these areas.
Select Automatic for documents with more than
one text column with or without pictures, or for
documents that contain cell tables or
spreadsheets. TextBridge Pro will locate the text
columns so that recognized text is output in the
correct read order. It will also locate halftone
pictures (if they are present), and prevent OCR
from being performed at those locations. In
addition, it will identify cell tables and
spreadsheets so these can be properly recomposed
in the output file.
