Checking Text in ABBYY FineReader

ABBYY FineReader highlights uncertainly recognized characters and words not found in the

dictionary in different colors. Usually, light blue is used for uncertain characters and pink for

words not found in the dictionary. To change the default colors:

● Select the Uncertain Character (or Not in Dictionary Word) item fol

lowed by the desired color in the Color item on the View tab

(Tools>Options menu) in the Appearance group

To check recognition results:

1. Click the 3–Check Spelling button on the WizardBar toolbar (or select the

Check Spelling item in the Tools menu).

2. The Check Spelling dialog will open.

3. The Check Spelling dialog contains three windows. The top window is similar

to the ABBYY FineReader Zoom window and displays the original image of

the word. The middle window displays the actual word, while the line above it

identifies the error type. The Suggestions window at the bottom provides

replacement suggestions (if any). Note that suggestions are based on the dic

tionary selected in the Dictionary language dropdown list; any language may

be chosen from this list.
