OCUMENTS
The TextBridge Document is the program’s proprietary file type; it has
the extension .TXD. It is one of the file types offered when saving a
document to file. You save the document to the TXD file type if you
want to work with it again in TextBridge Pro during a future session. You
can then process unfinished pages, add more pages and proof or edit
recognition results.
A TextBridge Document contains the original page images with any
zones placed on them. After recognition, the TXD also contains the
recognition results. Recognized characters are stored along with their
coordinate and confidence data. This preserves the links between image
and text, so that verification and proofing remain available when the
TXD is reopened in future sessions.
When you save a TextBridge Document, some settings are also saved.
When you open a TextBridge Document, these settings are applied,
temporarily replacing those existing in the program.
Why save to TXD
You do not have to save your documents to the TXD file type. You would
typically do this for the following reasons:
Ž
You cannot finish working with the document in the current session.
Ž
You want to pass the document to other users who have TextBridge
Pro 11. For example, you can pass a TXD file to a specialist for
proofing. In an office network, you may have one scanner generating
images for recognition and proofing at several workstations.
