Automatic processing provides speed and efficiency. Manual
processing demands more attention, but gives greater control over results.
It is possible to tap into both benefits while processing a single document.
Start automatically and finish manually
When you have a large document with only a few pages needing
special attention, you do not have to manually process the whole document.
You can process it automatically and view results in the Text Editor.
You can determine which pages are in order, and which need different settings
or some manual zoning. After adjusting settings and/or modifying zones,
use manual processing to re-recognize just those pages or use on-the-fly
processing.
Prepare the document and perform
automatic processing.
If you close or finish proofing
you will be invited to save the document. This is recommended, even if
it is not in its final form.
Select a page needing rezoning
and delete or modify the existing zones in the Page Image panel. Draw
new zones as desired.
Change other settings as required
for the current page.
Click the Perform OCR button
to re-recognize the current page. Confirm that the previous recognition
results should be overwritten. Alternatively, you can use on-the-fly processing to handle zoning
changes without re-recognizing the whole page.
To re-recognize more than one
page, select the required pages in the thumbnails or Document Manager
before clicking the Perform OCR button.
When all pages have been re-recognized
with acceptable results, save the document again.
Start manually and finish automatically
Prepare settings and acquire
images for the document by clicking the Get Page button.
Examine the pages for suitable
brightness, orientation and content. Rescan or rotate unsuitable images.
Reorder pages as desired.
Manually
zone pages where you want to process only part of the page or if you
want to give precise zoning instructions. Use ignore backgrounds or zones
to exclude areas from processing. Use process backgrounds or zones to
specify areas to be auto-zoned.
Click the Start button, then
choose Finish processing existing pages without adding new ones in the
Start Automatic Processing
dialog box and click Start.
After proofing (if requested)
you can export the document.
