ABBYY® FineReader 14 User’s Guide
If the complex structure of a paper document is not reproduced
Before running the OCR process, ABBYY FineReader 14 analyzes of the logical structure of the
document and detects areas containing text, pictures, tables, and barcodes. The program then relies on
this analysis to identify which parts of the image need to be recognized and the order in which they
should be recognized. This information helps recreate the formatting of the original document.
By default, ABBYY FineReader 14 will analyze documents automatically. In the case of very complex
layouts, the program may occasionally make mistakes when determining the type of an area type or
locating it's borders. It is often easier to correct faulty areas manually rather than drawing all areas
anew.
Use the following tools and commands to correct areas:
· The manual area adjustment tools on the toolbar at the top of the Image pane.
· The shortcut menu commands available by right-clicking the selected area in the Image pane or
the Zoom pane.
· Commands on the Area menu.
Make sure you recognize the document again after making the desired adjustments, so that the
changes you have made to the areas are reflected in the recognized text.
For more information about areas, see Editing areas .
OCR settings, area properties, and selected saving options also have an effect on how well the layout of
the original document is retrained. See also: OCR options , Editing area properties , Saving OCR
