Select a layout retention method depending on how you are intending to use the document:
• Formatted text
Preserves paragraphs, but does not preserve exact positions of objects and line spacing. You will
get continuous left–aligned text (texts printed in right–to left scripts will be right–aligned).
Note: Any vertical text will be displayed horizontally if this option is selected.
When saving to EPUB, you can additionally save fonts and font sizes by selecting Save
fonts and font sizes.
• Plain text
Does not preserve text formatting.
Use first page as cover
Selecting this option will place the first page of the document on the cover of the e–book.
Embed fonts
Selecting this option will embed the saved fonts into the e–book.
Saving in DjVu
To save your text in DjVu:
• Select File>Save Document As>DjVu Document. Alternatively, you can use the saving button
on the main toolbar. Click the arrow next to the saving button and select a format. If you do not see
the format you need on the list, select Save to Other Formats… and select the desired format in
the Save As dialog box.
Tip. You can select additional saving options on the DjVu tab of the Options dialog box
(Tools>Options…>Save>DjVu).
This tab offers the following options
Save mode
Select a saving method depending on how you are intending to use the document:
• Text under the page image
Saves the image of the page and places the recognized text in a separate invisible layer underneath
the image. Thus, you get a searchable DjVu document that looks almost exactly like the original.
• Page image only
Saves the image of the page. The output document will look almost exactly like the original,
but the text in the document will not be searchable.
Multiple layers
The DjVu format uses a special compression technique which separates a page image into layers
and applies different compression methods to each of them. By default, ABBYY FineReader will
automatically determine whether multi–layer compression must be used on a page (the Automatic
option is selected in the Multiple layers drop–down list). You can enable or disable multi–layer
compression for a document.
Picture settings
If your text contains very many pictures, the resulting file may be fairly large. The quality of the
pictures and the size of the resulting file can be tweaked using the options in the Picture settings
drop–down list.
