Could be an upgrade issue--this is a new version. Thanks for the hint on finding them easier in outline view--it does help, even though they are still a bear. smile.

I have not had a problem yet with my scans, but have had a couple from others recently. Wonder if it is an upgrade issue? I do not have images checked. I know you can find them easier in the outline view of Word than in Print view, but they are a bear!Valeriewww.caringbridge.org/visit/nicholemaples <http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/nicholemaples>------------------------------------------------------------------------ *From:* Judy s. <cherryjam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> *To:* bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx *Sent:* Tue, June 4, 2013 10:53:10 AM*Subject:* [bksvol-discuss] Finereader creating hidden text boxes during OCRHas anyone else who is using ABBYY Finereader had problems with it creating hidden text boxes in the Word file it creates during OCRing? How are you avoiding that or dealing with it when it happens?I've been working on a file created from a book that was oddly formatted on the original printed page, with two columns per page and the text wrapped around tons of photos that were embedded within the text. On many pages Finereader created hidden textboxes containing chunks of the text. Sometimes it put the hidden text boxes within headers and footers as well. With the hidden text boxes, you can't just select everything and copy it to a new file in Word 2010 with these, either. You have to find each textbox (that's a whole nightmare in itself), convert each one separately to a frame, and then convert each frame to text if you want to pull out the text. This isn't my idea of fun. grin. I've seen some macros to help with this, but if there's a way to not have it happen in the first place it would be best.Judy s.
