When converting PDFs using FineReader, how do you deal with pictures that are inside table cells? In the good old ABBYY PDF Transformer v2.0 (and in pre-9.0 versions of FineReader) it was possible to specify a picture area on top of a table cell. In FineReader v11 this doesn't work.

Alternatively, I can perform several rounds of conversion: 1) export the whole document where all the zones are marked properly but images in cells are treated as text; 2) remove all zones in specific pages and then mark the image zones so that the exported Word document con...

Hello Artem,
In such cases I always insert more vertical and horizontal lines in such a way that I can mark a single cell as an image cell and then merge those cells where the text gets split into several cells. Alternatively, I can perform several rounds of conversion: 1) export the whole document where all the zones are marked properly but images in cells are treated as text; 2) remove all zones in specific pages and then mark the image zones so that the exported Word document contains only these images and I can copy-paste them into the 1st document.
