If you use True Page as the Text Editor view or for export,
recognized text is put into frames (formatting boxes). Some text
may be hidden if a frame is too small. To view the text, place the
cursor in the text frame and use the arrow keys on your keyboard
to scroll to the top, bottom, left, or right of the frame.
Check the glass, mirrors, and lenses on your scanner for dust,
smudges, or scratches. Clean if necessary.

OmniPage SE only recognizes machine printed-text characters
such as typewritten or laser-printed text. It can handle dot-matrix
characters, though accuracy may be lower on draft-quality texts. It cannot
read handprint or handwriting. However, it can retain signatures or other
handwritten text as a graphic.
