C REATING XPS DOCUMENTS
Readiris generates four types of XPS files: Text, Text-Image,
Image-Text and Image.
XPS stands for XML Paper Specification and is a fixed-layout
format developed by Microsoft.
To generate XPS output:
Click the Format button on the main toolbar and select the XPS
type of your choice in the Send to or External file drop-down list:
XPS Image
When you select XPS Image, Readiris generates image-only XPS
documents, it does not execute OCR.
XPS Image-Text
When you select XPS Image-Text, Readiris recognizes text and
creates searchable XPS files that contain the page image and the
recognized text.
The page image is placed on top of the text.
With this format you can always see the original document (as it
was scanned) while you are able to search for and copy-paste the
OCRed text, which is hidden beneath the image. As a result this
format is useful for archiving purposes.
XPS Text
When you select XPS Text, Readiris recognizes text and creates
searchable XPS files.
