# OutputTablesByColumn

Specifies how to order the records produced when OCR encounters a table.

Consider the following table. When `OutputTablesByColumn=FALSE`, the records are ordered A0 to D0, then A1 to D1, and so on. When `OutputTablesByColumn=TRUE`, the records are ordered A0 to A4, then B0 to B4, and so on.

A0 | B0 | C0 | D0
A1 | B1 | C1 | D1
A2 | B2 | C2 | D2
A3 | B3 | C3 | D3
A4 | B4 | C4 | D4

This parameter affects records in the `Data`, `Result`, `CharResult`, and `WordResult` tracks. The `TableResult` track is not affected (because each record represents an entire table, including the structure information that allows you to reconstruct it).
