	Formatting

When it comes to saving time and effort, formatting is nearly as important as accuracy. Reconstructing the layout of a page can be a time consuming process - especially if there are columns, tables or graphics involved. OmniPage Pro 12 introduces new technology that maintains the exact layout of the original page, eliminating page re-composition and saving users more time than ever before.

  Flowing Page Output offers a never-before-seen combination of page fidelity and editability. Columns, tables and graphics remain in place, while text flows naturally.
  
   
• Superior Page Analysis
  Before recomposing the layout of a document, OCR must first understand all elements of the page. OmniPage Pro 12 features improved detection of page elements, in particular the detection of tables. This ensures that users will not have to re-key complex tables or spreadsheets - even tables without gridlines.

OmniPage Pro 12 is not just a paper-to-digital conversion tool. In fact, OmniPage can convert most popular image files into editable formats like Microsoft Word or Excel. The most important of these image formats is PDF. PDF files are found in our email and throughout the Internet, but the information held within them cannot be edited or utilized. OmniPage Pro 12 unlocks PDF files, converting the information into the file format of your choice.
