OCR Options
The Settings Panel 172
Retain Font and Paragraph Formatting
Select this to retain font characteristics and paragraph formatting in the
recognized document. This option does not retain the original page
layout.
For example, a multiple-column newspaper article would be formatted as
one column in order of recognition instead as a page with side-by-side
columns.
If you also selected
Retain Graphics
, any graphics in your document would
appear at the bottom of the page. (You must also select
Multiple Columns
as the zoning method, or manually zone graphics if
One Zone
is the zoning
method.)
This option attempts to reproduce the following during page recognition:
• Text alignment (justified, centered, or left-reading text)
• Font styles (select specific fonts in the Fonts settings panel)
• Font sizes
• Character styles (boldface, italics, underline)
• Paragraph groupings
