Converting from PDF
OmniPage Pro 14 Office is supplied with a separate program from 
ScanSoft: the PDF Converter for Microsoft Word. This allows you to 
convert PDF files into Word documents quickly and easily. Once 
OmniPage Pro is installed, PDF becomes available as a file type in the 
Microsoft Word File Open dialog box. In most cases the conversion can 
be done without invoking OmniPage Pro. It also places a PDF to Word 
button in the Microsoft Outlook toolbar to perform conversion of PDF 
files attached to mail messages.
The PDF Converter has its own help system, to be found in the Help 
menu in Microsoft Word.
Copying pages to Clipboard
You can copy the recognition results from the current page, selected 
pages or all document pages to the Clipboard. The copying is reported by 
a progress monitor. You can then paste the Clipboard contents into 
another application. 
Text formatting, such as bold and italics, is retained when you paste into 
an application that supports RTF 6.0/95 information. Otherwise, only 
plain or Unicode text will be pasted. Graphics are retained if the 
application supports insertion of images. If the target application has a 
command Paste Special..., use it to specify which variant to paste.
To copy pages to the Clipboard:
With automatic processing, select Copy to Clipboard as the 
setting in the Export Results drop-down list on the OmniPage 
Toolbox. The Copy to Clipboard dialog box appears as soon as 
the last available page is recognized or proofed.
With manual processing, select the Copy to Clipboard setting in 
the Export Results drop-down list and then click its button. The 
Copy to Clipboard dialog box appears immediately.
Specify a page range and formatting level to be used, then click 
OK to start the copying.
