To process text and copy it to the Clipboard:
1. Display the page in the Page Viewer.
2. On the Annotation Tool Bar, click the Selection icon. The cursor
changes to a crosshair.
3. Drag the mouse to surround the text that you want to copy to the
Clipboard as text. A dashed box appears around the information as
you select it.
4. From the Edit menu, choose Copy as Text. The PaperPort software
processes the selected text using the provided OCR software and
places it on the Clipboard. You can then paste the text into another
application file, such as a word processing document, and edit the
text in the word processor.
GETTING THE BEST OCR RESULTS
You can often improve OCR results by changing the PaperPort scan
settings and the preferences. Try the following:
• Choose the Editing Text (OCR) scan mode and rescan the item.
• Insert the paper as straight as possible when scanning.
• Choose the Clean Page command in the Page Viewer.
• Use the Annotation Selection tool to delete graphics before processing
the item.
• Process sections of the item using the Copy as Text command.
• Recalibrate the scanner.
