Scanning Scanning with Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is like a printer in reverse. Instead of printing what's on the screen onto paper, OCR converts text and numbers on a scanned page into editable text and numbers. You can then work with the text and numbers to edit, spellcheck, change font or type size, sort, calculate, and so forth. NOTE: For all OCR processing, use the original factory settings for OCR scanning that came with your scanner. When scanning with other settings, use at least 300 dpi for the resolution. If the original documents are of poor quality and have small type, 400 dpi can be used as the maximum resolution. The One Touch OmniPage Module or the OmniPage Pro software must be installed on your computer in order to use the OCR options with the One Touch 4.0 software and your DocuMate 252 scanner. One Touch 4.0 and OmniPage Pro work together to combine scanning with OCR processing into one integrated step. The One Touch OmniPage Module was automatically installed when you installed your driver, the OmniPage Pro software is on the Disc 2 CD that you received with your scanner. The One Touch OmniPage Module and the OmniPage Software can both be installed on your computer at the same time, however, the features in the One Touch OmniPage Module will take precedence over the OmniPage software features when using One Touch 4.0. The "One Touch OmniPage Mini-Guide" is available on the Disc 1 installation CD. With the One Touch OmniPage Module or OmniPage Pro software installed, the OCR process is automatic when the page format on the One Touch Properties window is a text format, such as DOC, TEXT, XLS, RTF, and so forth. NOTE: If you have uninstalled the One Touch Omni Page Module or the OmniPage Pro software from your computer, items scanned as a text format are still converted with the OCR process, however, the options available with the process are then limited.

Scanning with Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is like a printer in reverse.
Instead of printing what’s on the screen onto paper, OCR converts
text and numbers on a scanned page into editable text and
numbers. You can then work with the text and numbers to edit,
spellcheck, change font or type size, sort, calculate, and so forth.
The One Touch OmniPage Module
or
the OmniPage Pro software
must be installed on your computer in order to use the OCR
options with the One Touch 4.0 software and your DocuMate 252
scanner. One Touch 4.0 and OmniPage Pro work together to
combine scanning with OCR processing into one integrated step.
The One Touch OmniPage Module was automatically installed
when you installed your driver, the OmniPage Pro software is on
the Disc 2 CD that you received with your scanner. The One Touch
OmniPage Module and the OmniPage Software can both be
installed on your computer at the same time, however, the features
in the One Touch OmniPage Module will take precedence over the
OmniPage software features when using One Touch 4.0. The “One
Touch OmniPage Mini-Guide” is available on the Disc 1 installation
CD.
With the One Touch OmniPage Module or OmniPage Pro software
installed, the OCR process is automatic when the page format on
the One Touch Properties window is a text format, such as DOC,
TEXT, XLS, RTF, and so forth.
NOTE:
For all OCR processing, use the original factory settings
for OCR scanning that came with your scanner. When scanning
with other settings, use at least 300 dpi for the resolution. If the
original documents are of poor quality and have small type, 400
dpi can be used as the maximum resolution.
NOTE:
If you have uninstalled the One Touch Omni Page
Module or the OmniPage Pro software from your computer,
items scanned as a text format are still converted with the OCR
process, however, the options available with the process are
then limited.
