ABBYY FineReader 9.0 User’s Guide
● Options dialog box
To mark each line of text as a separate table cell:
1. Select Tools>Options… and click the 2. Read tab.
2. Under Table processing, select One line of text per cell in table.
3. Re–launch the OCR process.
Note: You may also need to adjust the results of automatic table analysis if your table contains cells with vertical text in them.
Picture Not Detected
Picture areas mark the pictures contained in your document. You can also use picture areas to select any text fragments that you want
treated as pictures (ABBYY FineReader will not perform OCR on these areas). If the program fails to detect a picture automatically, use
the Picture tool to draw a picture area around the picture manually.
1. On the toolbar at the top of the Image window, select the tool and then use the mouse to draw a rectangle around the
picture on your image.
2. Re–launch the OCR process.
You can change the type of any area to Picture by right–clicking inside the area and selecting Change Area Type>Picture.
Barcode Not Detected
Barcode areas mark the barcodes contained in your document. To render a barcode as a sequence of letters and digits rather than as a
picture, select the barcode and then change the area type to Barcode.
To make ABBYY FineReader detect barcodes:
1. Select Tools>Options… and click the Advanced tab.
2. Make sure that the Look for barcode option is selected under Reading and click OK to close the dialog box.
3. Make the Image window active.
4. Hold down the CTRL+SHIFT+ALT buttons and draw a rectangular area around the barcode on the image.
5. Click Read to launch the OCR process.
