Commands and Settings 17
If a page has thick, run-together characters or if it is printed on porous
paper such as newsprint, or if it is printed on glossy paper, lighten the
brightness setting.
To evaluate brightness settings, watch the Character Window as Direct
performs text recognition. For a description of the Character Window, see
Chapter 4, How to Improve Performance.
<CR> at end of line
Select this if you want a hard carriage return inserted at the end of each
line of text.
Use this setting if you’re scanning lists, lines of code, or other text where
you want each line to be an individual paragraph when it appears in your
word processor.
When this is deselected, Direct will look for extra space between lines of
text on the scanned page and interpret space as a paragraph break. It will
insert a hard carriage return at the paragraph break. If text is continuous,
it will assume that the continuous text is one paragraph.
File Menu
The File menu contains the Quit command. Select Quit to exit the Direct
program and remove the program from memory.
Full Page
Click the Full Page icon to let Direct recognize all the text on a scanned
page. Direct will determine column structure according to the Page
Layout setting in the Options dialog box.
If you want Direct to only recognize parts of a page, click the Partial Page
icon. After the scan, you’ll be able to select specific parts you want
recognized. See Chapter 2, How to Scan Text.
