7. Create and edit text, image, and ignore zones, as
appropriate.

Creating a text zone turns off document recomposition, because
Note
TextBridge Pro assumes that you want to capture only part of the
page. Text is output in galley (single-column) format. However,
you can create image and ignore zones without affecting docu-
ment recomposition. This feature is called Smart Zones™. When
using Smart Zones, it is very important to zone all images on
a page in order for a document to be recomposed correctly.
Zones have two orders—output order and front-to-back order. The
output order is displayed in the upper left hand corner of the
zone, and cannot be changed. Zone output order is the order in
which the zones are created.
Front-to-back ordering affects zone contents, in that zones in the
front obscure the parts of zones that are behind them. When you
draw a new zone, it is the front-most zone.
To select another zone, click the Edit Zone button, point to a zone
edge, and click the mouse.
To resize the selected zone, click and hold on a corner handle of
the zone, and drag the mouse.
