An important advantage of ABBYY FormDesigner is that once you have created a form in ABBYY FormDesigner you automatically get a form description that can be used to create a Document Definition in ABBYY FlexiCapture. To get a description for ABBYY FlexiCapture:
  1. Create a form in ABBYY FormDesigner.
  2. Publish the form (File → Publish Form).
  3. Export the published form to XML Form Definition format (File → Export To → XML Form Definition…). In the Export to XML Form Definition dialog box that appears, provide a name for the file and browse to the folder where it will be stored.
  4. Run ABBYY FlexiCapture and open the Document Definitions dialog box (Project → Document Definitions…).
  5. Click Import and select the newly-created *.xfd file.
