Scan Multiple Pages and Defer OCR
Tutorials 70
Tutorial 7 — Deferring OCR
Compared to the time it takes to scan and zone a page, OCR can be time-
consuming. You might find it more efficient to scan a stack of pages
(especially if you have an ADF) or load multiple images all at once, zone
them, and then defer recognition to a later time.
You can choose to finish OCR at any time convenient to you or set it to take
place automatically at a specific time. In this tutorial, you will scan two
pages, defer OCR, and then finish OCR both on an open document and on
a saved document.
Use the Quick Scan Page sample and the True Page sample in this tutorial.
This tutorial contains the following exercise:
• Scan Multiple Pages and Defer OCR
• Finish Current Document
• Finish Deferred Documents
