Scanning Basics
2-29
If you still have problems...
1. In the Manual mode window, increase the
Resolution
value
to 400. Remember that scanning at higher resolution takes
longer and may not increase the recognition rate much.
2. If you still have problems, try using the enhancement tools in
your OCR software to make adjustments.
Potential Text Recognition Problems
The quality of the text in your original document greatly effects
OCR results.
The following types of originals can make recognition difficult
and should be avoided if possible:
❏
Items that have been copied from other copies
❏
Faxes

Text with tightly-spaced characters or line pitch
❏
Text that is in tables or underlined
❏
Cursive or italic fonts, and font sizes less than 8 points
Remember that OCR software cannot recognize handwritten
characters.
