Readiris 15 - User Guide
Once you've selected a scanner model, you must configure you scanner driver.
• Click Configure to select your scanner driver.
If you do not see your scanner listed in the Select Source window, then your scanner driver
has not been installed properly. Re-install your scanner driver before trying to configure it in
Readiris. The scanner driver can usually be found on the website of your scanner
manufacturer.
Once the scanner has been configured you can start scanning, using the default scanner settings.
For more information about the different scanner settings and how to change them, see the
topic Selecting the Scanner Settings
.
How to improve the recognition results
The quality of the recognition results depends on a number of factors:
• the document language
Make sure you select the right language in the Language list. See the section
Recognition
Options for more information.
• the quality of the scanned documents
If the scanned documents are too bright, or too dark, Readiris will have trouble recognizing
them. Luckily there is a feature that allows you to adjust the quality of scanned documents.
See the section Adjusting the Image Quality
to learn how to do so.
• the scanner settings
If you are using a scanner to scan documents, the image quality is also linked to the scanner
settings. See the section Selecting the Scanner Settings
to make sure the right settings have
been selected for your scanner.
