OneTouch 4.0 and OmniPage Pro work together to combine scanning
with OCR processing into one integrated step. You can select a range of
options for the OCR process.
To select OmniPage OCR options:
1. Open the OneTouch Properties window.
2. Using the arrows, choose a button that has Destination
Applications that use the text format as their file type.
3. Select the Destination Application to get one of the text format file
types as the page format.
Note: OCR scanning is also for spreadsheets so you can work in
Microsoft Excel (or other spreadsheet applications) with the figures
and text from the original spreadsheets.
Note: OmniPage OCR options apply globally to all the OneTouch
buttons that perform OCR. For example, Button 6 is set by default to
OCR text, but Button 8 is not. If you reconfigure Button 8 to also
OCR text, the OCR options you select for Button 8 will also apply to
Button 6.
Make sure the Destination Application is set to
scan with one of the text formats.
