Scanning for OCR
The OCR (Optical Character Recognition) function allows the scanner to convert a
scanned document into text that can be edited from any word processing
application.
1. Load the documents to be scanned onto the ADF's Document Feed Tray.
2. Launch ScanWizard DI in stand-alone mode by clicking the program icon on
the desktop.
3. Follow the procedure (steps 3 through 6) for “Scanning a Stack of
Documents” to specify your scanning requirements.
a) In step 3d, the recommended resolution is 300 dpi or above for OCR.
b) In step 6, from the Attribute options menu, choose Line Art as your
image type to obtain best OCR results. When Black & White is your
chosen mode in the Scan Type options, Line Art should be the selected
image type.
4. Click the Custom Scan button and select OCR to open the “Custom Scan-
OCR” dialog box.
In the “Custom Scan-OCR” dialog box, specify the following settings:
a) Key in your preferred file name in
the “File prefix” edit box, or use
the default “Document” as a root
file name.
b) Select your required export file
format.
c) Check the “Save multiple pages as
a single file” option to store all the
scanned images as a single file if
desired.
d) Select your preferred language
from the “OCR Language” options.
The available options are English,
German, French, Italian, Spanish,
and Chinese.
e) Check the “Send document to
application after saving” option,
then choose your word processing
application from the options.
