Workflows
4. From OPD to Word and TIFF
Input is from OPD with run-time prompting for name and 
path. The idea is to open the OPD generated by workflow 3.
The OPD is presented for proofing and editing. (At run-time, 
the Document Ready button signals that proofing is finished).
Save as OmniPage Document back to its original location and 
name to overwrite the previous unproofed version.
Save recognized pages to Word 2000 and page images to TIFF 
with the pre-defined multiple converter “Word and TIFF”. 
Settings and formatting levels will be those currently set for the 
two file converters contributing to this multiple converter.
If you need other export settings, or you want fixed settings when using 
this workflow, you should use two separate saving steps. You can also use 
an independent multiple converter you have defined yourself. See “Using 
multiple converters” on page 86.
When using two incomplete workflows, recognition does not have to be 
in the first workflow, as in the example above. You can use the first 
workflow just to scan or import images. The second workflow can 
contain the recognition, proofing and saving. This is useful when 
scanning is performed at a different location.
You can use these sample workflows as they are. You can modify their 
settings, for instance to take input from pre-specified files and with 
different recognition languages. See “Modifying workflows” on page 101. 
You can choose a sample workflow as the starting point for a new user-
defined workflow. See “Creating workflows” on page 98.
Running workflows
Here is how to run a sample workflow or one you have created:
1. If your workflow takes input from scanner, place your document in 
its ADF or its first page on the scanner bed.
2. Select the desired workflow from the Workflow drop-down list.
3. Press the Start button. The OmniPage Toolbox displays the steps in 
the workflow and acts as a progress monitor. You do not have access
