ABBYY® PDF Transformer 3.0 User’s Guide
● If a table cell contains only a picture, select Treat Selected Cells as Picture. If the cell contains text as well as a picture, draw
a separate area for the picture inside the cell.
● By using keyboard shortcuts
● To merge or split table cells, press CTRL+M or CTRL+L respectively. You can only split cells that have been previously merged.
You may also need to adjust the results of automatic table analysis if your table contains cells with vertical text in them. For
troubleshooting, see the “Vertical Text Not Detected” section.
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 PDF Transformer 3.0 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. Select the tool and then use the mouse to draw a rectangle around the picture on your image.
2. Re–launch the conversion process.
You can change the type of any area to Picture by right–clicking on the area and selecting Picture Area.
Vertical Text Not Converted Properly
A fragment of converted text may contain a large number of errors if the orientation of the fragment was detected incorrectly.
If all the text on the page has non–standard orientation, rotate the page. For more information, see the “Rotating Images” section.
To convert vertical text:
1. Select the area or the table cell that contains vertical text.
2. Select the desired text orientation from the shortcut menu.
3. Re–launch the conversion process.
Rotating Images
For the text to be converted correctly, your images must have the usual reading orientation, i.e. the text must start at the top and the
lines must be horizontal.
To rotate an image:
1. Open the page you wish to rotate.
2. On the toolbar, select one of the tools:
●
Rotates the image 90 degrees to the right.
●
Rotates the image 90 degrees to the left.
Adjusting Area Types and Area Borders
Before ABBYY PDF Transformer 3.0 starts converting a document, it detects the following area types: Text, Picture, Table. The
program relies on this analysis to determine the areas and order of conversion and to recreate the original formatting. Different types
of border areas are distinguished by different colors.
