Nuance omnipage pro 6 Service Manual

Click the Zones icon in the Settings Panel to select the zoning method that 
determines the flow of text during recognition. 

Use your right mouse button to click the Zone button in the toolbar when 
it is active and automatically open the Settings Panel to Zones options.

You can create zones manually, automatically, or with a template, but 
OmniPage still uses the selected zoning method in the Settings Panel to 
determine text flow within each zone. OmniPage also uses the selected 
zoning method to draw and order zones on the page image when you 
choose the Auto Zones processing command.

Select Multiple Columns if you want OmniPage to discern the column 
layout, determine the order of text, and distinguish graphics from text. 
This works well with most types of documents and is especially useful for:

• Multiple columns

• newspaper and newsletter pages

• magazine pages

OmniPage looks for regular vertical separations of text to define columns 
and then recognizes column-wide text zones. It starts at the top of the first 
column, moves to the bottom, then continues to the top of the next column.
