[. . . ] No Formatting (NF)--The document will be plain text, one column, left-aligned in a single font and font size. You can then export the plain text to nearly all file types and target applications. Retain Fonts and Paragraphs (RFP)--This output format retains the font and paragraph styling, including graphics and tables without columnized text, but does not retain layout formatting. If the document is being scanned as an Excel spreadsheet, each detected table or spreadsheet becomes a separate worksheet, while other content is placed on the last worksheet. Output Format Options 70 VISIONEER STROBE XP 220 SCANNER USER'S GUIDE Flowing Page (FP)--This format preserves the original layout of the pages, including columns. This is done wherever possible with column and indent settings, but not with text boxes or frames. Text will then flow from one column to the other, which does not happen when text boxes are present. True Page (TP)--This output format uses absolute positioning on the page to keep the original layout of the pages, including columns. This is done with text, picture and table boxes and frames. True Page is the only choice for documents scanned with the PDF format. It is not available for the TXT, RTF, CSV, or XLS formats. Spreadsheet--This output format produces results in a tabular form with each page becoming a separate worksheet. The worksheets can then be opened in a spreadsheet application. The Spreadsheet output option is only available for documents scanned with the XLS format. 2. These options will now apply to the OCR processing when you select any text format as the page format. SELECTING NEW ONETOUCH SCAN SETTINGS 71 SCANNING WITH SPDF OR NPDF AND SEARCHING FOR TEXT Searchable PDF (sPDF) and Normal PDF (nPDF) are special forms of an Adobe PDF file. sPDF converts scanned text into the PDF format with text search and OCR capabilities. nPDF has those same features, plus you can edit the text in an nPDF image if you have a PDF editing program. The two PDF formats can also produce images with different image quality, so you may want to experiment with them to determine which is better for your scanned documents. Select a Destination Application that uses a text format as the page format. For example, select your email application as the Destination Application. Right-click on the text format icon. 4. Choose the Searchable PDF or Normal PDF option for the page format. 72 VISIONEER STROBE XP 220 SCANNER USER'S GUIDE Note: Not all Destination Applications have the sPDF and nPDF options. Microsoft Word, for example, does not have them as scanning options. The settings now show your page format selection. The page format icon is now set to sPDF. 5.
