You can schedule processing jobs to be performed automatically at a 
specified time in the future. The job pages can come from a scanner with an 
ADF or from image files. You do not have to be present at your computer at 
job start time, nor does OmniPage Pro have to be running. It does not 
matter if your computer is turned off after the job is set up, so long as it is 
running at job start time. If you are scanning pages, your scanner must be 
functioning at job start time, with the pages loaded in the ADF. Here is how 
to set up your first job:

1. Click Batch Manager... in the Process menu or in the Windows Start 

menu: select All Programs!ScanSoft OmniPage Pro 
14.0!OmniPage Batch Manager. The Batch Manager window 
appears. Because there are no existing jobs, the Workflow Assistant 
appears immediately.

2. Define a starting point for the new job. This can be a fresh start, an 

existing workflow or (later on) an existing job. Click Next to finish 
each step.

3. The following panels allow you to build the workflow for the job, as 

described in Chapter 6.

4. The final panel lets you name the job and specify timing instructions. 

In OmniPage Pro 14 Office you can request e-mail notification of 
job completion, create recurring jobs and specify a stopping time for 
watched folder jobs.

5. Click Finish to confirm job creation.

For more information, please see Batch Manager in the online Help and 
“Batch Manager” on page 101.

The Batch Manager window lists all jobs, with status Not Scheduled, Waiting, 
Running, Watching, Paused or Completed. Use Modify... in the Edit menu to 
change settings for jobs with status Not Scheduled or Completed. You can view, 
modify and reuse completed jobs to process new jobs needing similar settings. You 
can delete completed jobs when they are no longer needed.
