General Information on Saving Recognized Text
You may:
save recognized text using the Save Wizard,
save open or selected pages to file or send them to an external application,
save all batch pages to a file or export them into an external application,
save the page image.
Click the
4-Save button to export recognition results to the application of your choice or
save them to file. The icon’s appearance will depend on the currently active save mode.
The
Save button will display the name of the currently selected export application.
To save recognized text:
Click the arrow to the right of the 4-Save button and select the item of your choice in the
local menu.
Note: If you wish to save only a certain number of pages, select them before clicking the 4-
Save button.
Once export is complete, the
4-Save button icon will change appearance depending on the action per-
formed i.e. whether results are exported to an application, sent by e-mail, copied to the clipboard or saved
to file. The
4-Save button icon always displays the last export mode used. If you wish to export (an)other
image(s) using the same mode, just click on the icon itself; there is no need to use the button's local menu.
Text saving options are set on the Formatting tab in the Tools>Options menu. Note that some saving
options can be set in the
Save Wizard and Save Text as dialogs as well.

Retain full page layout - document layout is retained in full: paragraph arrangement, font

Retain font and font size – table structure, paragraph arrangement, font, and font size are
all retained.
Remove all formatting - only table structure and paragraph arrangement are retained.
Note: Some additional options may become available depending on the export format chosen. For
example, in case of the
RTF/DOC formats, you can set the default page size and highlight uncertain
characters; in the case of
HTML format, you can set the picture resolution and code page. You can set
these options in the
Formats Settings dialog (Tools>Formats Settings menu). The dialog has a sepa-
rate tab for each format, just click on the format tab of your choice and set the options.
