Options: Direct OCR

To display this dialog box click the Acquire Text Settings button in an OmniPage toolbar (or using the File menu) in WordPerfect or in earlier Microsoft Office versions, and from the Nuance OCR tab in a Microsoft Office 2007 application.

Process Options

Draw zones automatically: Select this to have OmniPage automatically draw zones on pages it recognizes and assign zone properties to them. If this is deselected, a window appears during Direct OCR processing so you can draw zones before recognition is run. See Manual zoning.

Proofread OCR: Select this to see the OCR Proofreader dialog box after recognition. It presents non-dictionary words or words containing suspect or reject characters, allowing you to correct them, helped by a display of the relevant part of the original image. Dictionary suggestions may also be available.

Load as digital camera image: Select this for processing images containing text taken by a digital camera. If selected, 3D Deskew, resolution enhancement and straightening text lines are performed automatically on images.

Image Source

Select whether you will scan pages or load image files in the Image Source drop-down list. To scan multiple pages for Direct OCR, you need an ADF.
