Note:
• By default, task files are stored in %Userprofile%\Local Settings\Application
Data\ABBYY\HotFolder\11.00.
(In Microsoft Windows Vista, Windows 7 in
%Userprofile%\AppData\Local\ABBYY\HotFolder\11.00).
• The results will be saved to the folder you specified when setting up the task. In some cases, to
prevent the loss of already processed files, the program will create a subfolder in the specified folder
and save the subsequent recognition results to this subfolder. The subfolder will be named as
follows:
1. "Hot Folder DD.MM.YYYY HH–MM–SS"
A subfolder with this name is created when you re–run a task.
2. "File name(NUMBER)"
A subfolder with this name is created if a file with a particular name already exists in the
folder you specified.
Important! For tasks to start, your computer must be turned on and you must be logged on.
