Scanning Text with the HP ScanJet 7400C on PC bologna



Last edited June, 2003

Scanning from OmniPage Pro 1.Place your text document in the ScanJet 7400c face down in the top right corner of the scanner (there is an arrow).

2.Open the Development Tools folder. Open Caere OmniPage Pro 10.

3.Check the Document Source, Original Layout, Output Format, and Export Destination settings in the OmniPage window to see that they are set as desired. Use default settings if you are not sure. Also be sure that the AutoOCR in top left corner is "on’.

4.Click on the large green Start button in the upper right corner of the OmniPage window.

5.The scanner will now scan and select the text.

6. An OCR Proofreader window may or may not appear. This will help to find any unrecognizable characters, ie handwriting. You may choose to proof your document; if not, close window.

7.You may now be asked to enter a name to save the file as, select the location and name and click Save.

HOWEVER, If the selection of text is not what you wished, you can manually select the text by clicking and dragging around the text in the Image View window and clicking the green button again.

8.Congratulations! You can now edit and save what you have scanned.
