Exporting Documents
36 Chapter 3
Saving a Document as You Work
Click the Save button in the Standard toolbar or choose Save in the File
menu to save changes to the current document as you work.
The Save As dialog box appears the first time you choose Save if a
document has not been saved as an OmniPage Document or text-based
file. See “Saving a Document” on page 34 for more information.
If a document has been saved as an OmniPage Document (
*.met
), all
the changes you make in the open document are saved when you choose
Save. If a document has been saved as a text-based file type, only the text
changes are saved out to that file.
For example, suppose you save the current document as a text file called
Memo.txt, but continue to make changes to the recognized text in
OmniPage Pro. Whenever you choose Save, changes in the recognized
text will be saved to the Memo.txt file.
Copying a Document to the Clipboard
You can copy every page of a recognized document to the Clipboard
and then paste the text directly into another application.
To copy a document to the Clipboard:
1 Set Copy to Clipboard as the command in the Export button’s
drop-down list.
2 Click the Export button or choose Copy to Clipboard in the
Process menu.
The document is copied to the Clipboard.
Text formatting, such as bold and italics, is retained when you paste
into an application that supports RTF information. Otherwise, only
plain text will be pasted. Graphics are retained if the application
supports bitmap images.
