VERIFYING CARDS
Scanshell.net is capable of verifying ID cards, by comparing data from two different
sources on the card, e.g., OCR and barcode, or OCR and magnetic strip.
1. Click on the Verification button
Figure 5-7: Card verification window
2. Select data source for the first scan; OCR or barcode.
3. Specify region, country and state, or check Region Auto Detect.
4. To start the scan, click Scanner, or File, if you use an image file as data source.
5. The card will be scanned once, and the data will appear under the First Scan
Results on the left side.
6. Repeat the process, but this time select a different data source, e.g., if the first scan
was performed using OCR, select now barcode or magnetic strip as data source.

If you select OCR or barcode as the second data source, click Scan to scan, or
File if your source is an image file.

If you wish to use the magnetic strip as data source for verification, select
Magnetic from the scan source list, and swipe the card's magnetic strip
through the magnetic reader.
