PROOFREADING OCR RESULTS
After a page is recognized, the recognition results appear in the Text 
Editor. Proofreading starts automatically if that was requested in the 
Proofing panel of the Options dialog box or in the OCR Wizard. You can 
start proofing manually any time the program is not busy. Work as 
follows:
1. Click the Proofread OCR button in the Standard toolbar, or choose 
Proofread OCR... in the Tools menu. 
2. Proofing starts from the beginning of the document, but skips text 
already proofed. If a suspected error is detected, the OCR 
Proofreader dialog box displays the error and a picture of how it 
originally looked in the image.
3. If the recognized word is correct, click Ignore or Ignore All to move 
to the next suspect word. Click Add to add it to the current user 
dictionary and move to the next suspect word.
4. If the recognized word is not correct, edit the word in the Change to 
edit box, or type in the desired word or select a dictionary suggestion. 
Click Change or Change All to implement the change and move to 
the next suspect word. Click Add to add the word in the Change to 
edit box to the current user dictionary and move to the next suspect 
word.
This is what 
OmniPage SE 
thought the 
word was.
The image of 
the suspect 
word is 
highlighted.
Drag a corner 
or the bottom of 
the dialog box 
to resize it.
This tells why 
the word is 
suspected.
This window shows 
the relevant part of the 
original image. Click 
inside it to enlarge or 
reduce the display.
