Toolbars

The ABBYY FineReader main window features several toolbars. The toolbar buttons provide easy

access to program commands. The same commands can be executed from the program menu or by

using shortcut keys.

The Main Toolbar has a fixed set of buttons for all basic actions: opening a document, scanning a

page, opening an image, recognizing pages, saving results, etc.

The Quick Access Bar can be customized by adding special buttons for virtually any command on

the main menu. By default, this bar is not displayed in the main window. To display it, click View >

Toolbars > Quick Access Bar. Alternatively, right click anywhere on the main toolbar and then

click Quick Access Bar.

In the Pages, Image, and Text windows, the toolbars are positioned on the left and at the top.

The buttons on the toolbar in the Pages window cannot be changed. The toolba rs in the Image

and Text window are fully customizable.

To add or remove toolbar buttons:

1. On the Tools menu, click Customize… to open the Customize Toolbars and

Shortcuts dialog box.

2. Click the Toolbars tab and select a category in the Categories field.

Note: When a new category is selected, the commands on the Commands list will change

according to the set of commands on the main menu.
