What's New in ABBYY FineReader 11
• Increased processing efficiency
With the new Black–and–White mode, FineReader 11 provides 30% faster processing when you
don't need color. Furthermore, the program effectively takes advantage of multi–core processors for
even faster conversion.
• Flexible e–book creation
Scan paper books and convert them to EPUB and FB2 formats to read them on–the–go on your
iPad, tablet or preferred portable device. Or send them directly to your Kindle account. Convert
paper books or articles to appropriate e–book formats to add them to your electronic library or
archive.
• Native support for OpenOffice.org Writer
FineReader 11 recognizes and converts images of documents and PDF files directly to
OpenOffice.org Writer format (ODT), accurately preserving their native layout and formatting. Now
you can easily add documents to your *.odt archive with a few mouse clicks.

styles, footnotes, headers and footers.
