ABBYY® FineReader 15 User’s Guide
Preserves the metadata when you save the document. This option is enabled by default.
If you want to make changes to the document's metadata, click the Edit Metadata... button, make the
desired changes, and click OK.
XLS(X) settings
The following settings are available:
Document layout
Select the appropriate setting depending on how you plan to use the output document.
1. Formatted text
Retains the fonts, font sizes, and paragraphs, but does not retain the exact line spacing or
locations of the objects on the page. The text produced will be left-aligned. Texts in right-to-
left scripts will be right-aligned.
Vertical texts will become horizontal.
2. Plain text
Does not retain the formatting.
Picture settings
You can save pictures in XLSX documents. Documents containing a large number of pictures can be
very large. The quality of the pictures and the size of the resulting file can be tweaked using the options
in the Keep pictures (XLSX only) drop-down list.
Tip. To change the picture saving settings, click Custom..., select the desired settings in the Custom
Settings dialog box, and click OK.
