Set the FlexiLayout properties

By default, the program names the new FlexiLayout FlexiLayout1 (see the FlexiLayout tab in the FlexiLayout Properties dialog box). For convenience, rename the FlexiLayout and give it a meaningful name. The FlexiLayout properties include the name of the FlexiLayout.
1

Open the FlexiLayout properties

Double-click the name of the FlexiLayout (that is, FlexiLayout1), or right-click the FlexiLayout and select Properties… on the shortcut menu.
2

Rename the FlexiLayout

In the Name field, type a new name for the FlexiLayout, for example, Recipe.
3

Specify the pre-recognition parameters

  • From the Text languages list, select English as the pre-recognition language. The documents contain text in English.
  • Select Typographic in the Text type group. This is the default setting.
  • Select the Fast pre-recognition mode.
4

Set the multi-page parameters

The document consists of one page. Set Minimum number of pages and Maximum number of pages to 1.
The following shows the configured properties for the Recipe FlexiLayout.

For more information about selecting the right parameters, see Sample 1. Step 3: Setting the FlexiLayout properties.
For one-page documents, you do not need predefined compound Header and Footer elements to indicate the beginning and end of documents. You can remove them from the list of FlexiLayout elements.
You can add Header and Footer elements to your FlexiLayout to indicate the beginning and end of documents. If neither the Header nor the Footer element is found when matching the FlexiLayout, the program uses the maximum number of pages specified in the FlexiLayout as the number of pages in the document. For this document, the maximum number of pages is set to 1.
