The software you installed with the HP All-in-One enables you to add new applications
to the list of possible destinations for your scans. When you add an application, it appears
in the list where you select an application as the scan destination in the HP Scan Pro
window. You can add different types of new applications, such as software for photo
editing, e-mail, and OCR.

where you can edit the text and save it. The layout and formatting of your original are
retained in the text editor application as much as possible.
If Automatic mode is not selected, the scan remains in the Readiris OCR window,
where you can manipulate it before converting or sending it.
