Importing an Image File
6 OmniForm Procedures
Importing an Image File
This section describes how to use the
Scan Form...
command to import an
image file as a recognized OmniForm form. You can also use the Form
Assistant dialog box to import a form. See “Using Form Assistant” on
page 3-2.
OmniForm can import and recognize black-and-white forms in either
PCX or TIFF format. Image resolution must be 200, 300, or 400 dots per
inch (dpi). If you have a fax modem, for example, you can receive a
faxed form and use the fax program’s software to save the file in PCX or
TIFF format. OmniForm offers the same import options for image files
as it does for scanned forms.
