Valerie: Section breaks can easily enough be converted to page breaks. The sequence is ^b to be replaced by ^m in word. There should also be a formatting option that reads something like keep original document layout. Try unchecking this & see if it doesn't go better. I've not used fine reader & my last version of Omnipage was 14--they've changed it quite a bit, since then, I've heard. If you're still havin trouble I can conceivably download a demo of FR & see what I can find. It's not a program used widely on this list due to its relative lack of access. There is also likely an option to recognize only text. U might wanna choose this. In Omnipage this is under zones.
