ABBYY® FineReader 15 User’s Guide
Multi-page document scanning options:
Specify settings for scanning multi-page documents if your scanner supports the following features:
duplex scanning, automatic document feeding (ADF), delays between automatic scans, etc.
Scanning facing pages
When you scan a book, a scanned image will typically contain two facing pages.
To improve OCR quality, images with facing pages need to be split into two separate images. ABBYY
FineReader 15 features a special mode that automatically splits such images into separate pages within
the OCR project.
Follow the instructions below to scan facing pages from a book or to scan dual pages.
1. Click Tools > Options... to open the Options dialog box and then click the Image
Processing tab.
2. Select the Split facing pages option in the Image preprocessing settings (apply to
conversion and OCR) group of options.
Make sure your scans have the correct orientation or enable the Correct page orientation
option. If a scan with facing pages does not have the correct orientation (e.g. it is upside-
down), facing pages will not be split.
3. Scan the facing pages.
There are other image processing options you can specify. See also: Image processing options .
You can also split facing pages manually:
1. Open the Image Editor by clicking the button on the toolbar of the Image
pane.
2. Use the tools in the Split section of the leftmost pane to split the page.
