# Tab Delimited Output for Embedded Tables

You can use KeyView to convert embedded tables in Word Processing documents (for example, Microsoft Word documents), and tables detected by Optical Character Recognition (OCR), to tab-delimited form.

This inserts a tab character between each cell, and a line break between each row. Tab and line break characters in the cells are replaced with spaces.

To enable tab delimited output for embedded tables

- In the C API, call the function `fpFilterConfig` and set the flag `KVFLT_TABDELIMITED` to true.

- In `formats.ini`, set the following parameter. (This is an alternative approach - you do not need to do this if you have configured this feature through the API).

      [Options]
      TabDelimited=TRUE
