Using automatic processing:
Auto-zoning always runs on the whole page, unless you load a zone template
file. Your layout description
influences the auto-zoning process during automatic processing.
Using manual processing:
There are three cases when auto-zoning runs. Process and ignore zones
and backgrounds determine which image parts will be auto-zoned.
auto-zone a whole page. The page
must not contain any zones.
auto-zone a part of a page. The
page part should be enclosed in a process zone.
auto-zone a page background.
The page background should be set as a process background.
See Zones, backgrounds and
auto-zoning for more information.
Using workflows: Auto-zoning
runs unless you choose Zone Images (both for manual zoning or applying
a zone template) in the Workflow Assistant. Auto-zoning will also run
if the manually drawn zone is a process zone.
Direct OCR: Auto-zoning
always runs if you select Draw zones
automatically in the Direct
OCR panel of the Options dialog box, or in the Acquire Text Settings dialog
box. If you do not select this, zoning must be done manually.
