ABBYY® FineReader 15 User’s Guide
Enable this option if you want to use the ABBYY PreciseScan technology to smooth out the characters in
the document. As a result, characters will not look pixelated even when you zoom in on the page.
Searchable PDF settings
This group of options lets you decide what elements of your PDF document you want to save.
Depending on how you are planning to use your document, select one of the following options:
·
Text and pictures only
This option saves only the recognized text and the associated pictures. The page will be fully
searchable and the size of the PDF file will be small. The appearance of the resulting document
may slightly differ from the original
·
Text over the page image
This option saves the background and pictures of the original document and places the
recognized text over them. Usually, this PDF type requires more disk space than Text and
pictures only. The resulting PDF document will be fully searchable. In some cases, the
appearance of the resulting document may slightly differ from the original.
·
Text under the page image
This option saves the entire page as an image and places the recognized text underneath. The
text layer makes it possible to search the document and copy text, while the page images
insure that the document looks virtually the same as the original.
Create bookmarks from headings
Select this option if you wish to create a table of contents from the document headings.
