• Make sure the correct document languages are selected in
the OCR panel of the Options dialog box. Only languages
included in the document should be selected.
• Turn IntelliTrain on and make some proofing corrections.
This is most likely to help with stylized fonts or uniformly
degraded documents. If IntelliTrain was running, try
turning it off – on some types of degraded documents it
may not be able to help.
• Do some manual training, or edit existing training to
remove unsuccessful training.
• If you use True Page as the Text Editor view or for export,
recognized text is put into text boxes or frames. Some text
may be hidden if a text box is too small. To view the text,
place the cursor in the text box and use the arrow keys on
your keyboard to scroll to the top, bottom, left, or right of
the box.
• Check the glass, mirrors, and lenses on your scanner for
dust, smudges or scratches. Clean if necessary.
Problems with fax recognition
Try these solutions to improve OCR accuracy on fax images:
• Ask senders to use clean, original documents if possible.
• Ask senders to select Fine or Best mode when they send
you a fax. This produces a resolution of 200 x 200 dpi.
• Ask senders to transmit files directly to your computer via
fax modem if you both have one. You can save fax images as
image files and then load them into OmniPage. See “Input
from image files” in the Processing documents Chapter.
