How to Train a User Pattern
1. Make sure the Train user pattern radio button is enabled on the Recognition
tab (Tools>Options menu) in the Training group.
2. Click 2Read. ABBYY FineReader will start recognition. When the program
encounters an unknown character, the Pattern Training dialog will open,
and the character image will be displayed..
Training to recognize a character:
The frame in the top dialog window should enclose a single character, and this character
must be fully enclosed by the frame. If the frame encloses only part of a character or more
than one character, click the frame borders and move them to enclose the character. The
and buttons may be used to move the frame border (and are useful for training
italic symbols — see below). Once you have positioned the frame correctly, type in the charac
ter and click the Train button.
Note:
1. The system can only be trained to recognize characters that are in the alpha
bet of the language being recognized. If the keyboard does not contain the
character that you want to train, denote the character by combining two char
acters or copy the required character from the Character Table. To access
this table, click the button in the Pattern Training dialog.
