By default, a new batch is created at FineReader startup.
Note. If you wish FineReader to open the last batch you
worked with at startup, check Open the last batch at startup
on the General tab of the Options dialog
(Tools>Options).
To open another batch:
Select the Open Batch item in the File menu or
click the Open Batch button (). The
Open Batch dialog will open.
Select the folder containing the batch you wish to open in the
Open Batch dialog.
When you open a batch, the previous batch is automatically closed
and saved. If you have been working with a new batch and you think
you will need this batch in the future, be sure to save this batch
before exiting the program.
Batches can be opened directly from Windows Explorer:
Right-click the batch folder (represented by the
icon) and select the Open with FineReader item in the local
menu. FineReader will be started and chosen batch opened.
