OCR and Basic TextBridge Operations

In addition, some complex, free-form layouts defeat TextBridge’s
recomposition capabilities. For these types of documents, it is
often best to preview pages and manually zone text and image
zones that you want to capture.
Retain pictures keeps pictures in the saved document if the
document format supports pictures. If you do not select retain
page layout, pictures are saved at the end or beginning of the
document, depending on your word processor. If you select retain
page layout, the pictures are in the same position in relation to
the text and each other as they were in the original page when
you print the page or view it so that you can see the layout.
Format with paragraph styles makes it possible for you to see
the specific formatting styles assigned to paragraphs of text by
TextBridge. Paragraph styles have names that begin with “TxBr”
Formatting styles include indentation, font size and style,
underline, bold, and italic. Paragraph styles make it easier for
you to change formatting when you open the output document in
your word processor. Paragraph styles are only available if your
word processor or other text program supports this capability.
For some documents, you may want only the text in simple
galley (one-column) form. In this case, you would not want to
retain the layout. The output document will have a single column
of all the text in the original document. If you choose to format
with paragraph styles, the text formatting but not the page
layout will be retained. For example, the final document will have
paragraphs and headings in styles like the original document and
in the order of the original document. If you choose to retain
pictures, the pictures will be at the end of the document. If you
use zone ordering, you can number the zones in the order in
which you want them to be in the final document.
Note
TextBridge is not designed to recognize and retain the layout of
forms, including forms designed with fill in the blanks, check
boxes, or vertical and horizontal lines separating fields of
information.
