Opening Images
Even if you don't have a scanner, you can still recognize image files (see the list of supported image for-
mats under Supported Image Formats).
To open an image:
● Click on the arrow to the right of the 1-Scan button and select the Open Image item in the
local menu. The appearance of the
1-Scan button icon will change - the Scan caption will
be replaced with the
Open caption.
● Select the Open image item in the File menu.
● In Windows Explorer: right-click the image file you wish to open and select the Open with
FineReader
item in the local menu. If FineReader is already running, the image will be
added to the current batch. Otherwise, before the image is added, FineReader will be
launched and the most recently used batch opened.
Select one or several images in the
Open dialog. The selected images will be displayed in the Batch
window, and the last selected image displayed in the Image and Zoom windows. All selected images
are copied into the batch folder. See General Information on Working with Batches section for more
information on batch organization and the way in which pages are displayed within batches.
