right–hand pane.
Select one of the following commands:
• Create new document
A new FineReader will be created when the task is launched.
Specify the options to be used when creating the document, processing images, and
recognizing texts:
• Use the document options selected in the program
when the task is launched
• Use custom document options
• Select existing document
Specify the FineReader document that contains the images to be processed.
• Use open document
Images from the opened FineReader document will be processed.
2. Acquire images
This step is optionl if at the previous step you selected Select existing document or Use
open document.
• Open image / PDF
Specify the folder from which ABBYY FineReader will take images when the task is launched.
• Scan
The scanning settings selected in ABBYY FineReader at the time of scanning will be used.
Note:
a. If images are added to a document that already contains images, only the newly
added images will be processed. If a new document is added, all images in the
document will be processed.
b. If an ABBYY FineReader document to be processed contains already recognized
pages and already analyzed pages, the recognized pages will not be processed
anew and the analyzed pages will be recognized.

At this step, the program analyzes images to identify text areas, picture areas, table areas,
or barcode areas. The Analyze step will be added automatically when the Read step is
selected.
