Set the FlexiLayout properties

By default, FlexiLayout Studio names the new FlexiLayout FlexiLayout1. For convenience, rename it and give it a meaningful name.
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.
5

Review the configured properties

Confirm that the Recipe FlexiLayout properties match the following.

For more information about selecting the right parameters, see Sample 1, Step 3. A FlexiLayout has predefined compound Header and Footer elements that mark the beginning and end of a document. When you match the FlexiLayout and it finds neither element, FlexiLayout Studio uses the maximum number of pages as the document’s page count. This document has one page, and its maximum number of pages is set to 1, so you do not need the Header and Footer elements. Remove them from the list of FlexiLayout elements.
