OCR projects
While working with the program, you can save your interim results in an OCR project so that you
can resume your work where you left off. An OCR project contains the source images, the text that has
been recognized on the images, your program settings, and any user patterns , languages or
language groups that you have created.

Opening anOCR project
When you launch the OCR Editor, a new OCR project is created by default. You can either work this
new OCR project or open an existing one.
To open an existing OCR project:
1. Click File > Open OCR Project....
2. In the dialog box that opens, select the OCR project that you want to open.
If you open an OCR project that was created in an earlier version of the program, ABBYY FineReader
will try to convert it into the new format used by the current version. This conversion cannot be
undone, so you will be prompted to save your OCR project under a different name. The recognized
text from the old project will not be carried over into the new project. To recognize the pages in the
OCR project, click the button.
Tip. If you want the last used OCR project to open when you launch the OCR Editor, select Open the
last used OCR project on the General tab of the Options dialog box (click Tools > Options... top
open this dialog box).
