52 Processing documents
Single column, no table
Choose this setting if your pages contain only one column of text and no
table. Business letters or pages from a book are normally like this. Choose
it also for a page with words or numbers arranged in columns if you do
not want these placed in a table or decolumnized or treated as separate
columns. Graphics may be detected.
Multiple columns, no table
Choose this if some of your pages contain text in columns and you want
this decolumnized or kept in separate columns, similar to the original
layout. Columns can be retained in the output document, either with
frames (if True Page is selected at export time) or without frames (if
Flowing Page is selected). If tabular data is encountered, it is likely to be
treated as flowing text. Graphics may be detected.
Single column with table
Choose this if your page contains only one column of text and a table.
Auto-zoning will not look for columns but will try to find a table and
place it in a grid in the Text Editor. You can later specify whether to
export it in a grid or as tab separated text columns. Graphics may be
detected.
Spreadsheet
Choose this if your whole page consists of a table which you want to
export to a spreadsheet program, or have treated as single table. No
flowing text or graphics zones will be detected.
Custom
Choose this for maximum control over auto-zoning. You can prevent or
encourage the detection of columns, graphics and tables. Make your
settings in the Custom Layout panel of the Options dialog box.
Template
Choose a zone template file if you wish to have its background value,
zones and properties applied to all acquired pages from now on. The
template zones are also applied to the current page, replacing any existing
zones. They will also be applied to pre-existing pages without zones when
they are (re-)recognized. See “Using zone templates” on page 61.
If auto-zoning yielded unexpected recognition results, use manual
processing to rezone individual pages and re-recognize them.
