OCR Aware Notes
The OCR Aware feature adds an
Acquire Text
command to the File
menu of major text-based applications. You can use this to load
an image file and perform OCR on the spot. For complete
information on using OCR Aware, please see OmniPage Pro’s
online help.
Registering Applications With OCR Aware
OCR Aware supports 32-bit applications and 16-bit applications.
Applications must be registered in the
OCR Aware
section of the
Options dialog box. The easiest way to register an application is
to launch the application first. Any application that is running
automatically appears in the
Unregistered
list. Click
Add
to add a
selected application to the
Registered
list. Some applications
must
be registered this way rather than using the
Browse
button.
Otherwise, they may not be registered correctly.
Please note the following:
• This version of OCR Aware does not allow direct scanning.
• OCR Aware is not compatible with the 2.x versions of
America Online (AOL). Before running these versions of
AOL, please turn off OCR Aware. To do so, open
OmniPage Pro for Visioneer PaperPort, choose
Options...
in
the Tools menu, click the
OCR Aware
tab. Deselect
Enable
OCR Aware
.
OCR Aware is compatible with AOL 3.0. Please contact AOL
about upgrading your version.
• OCR Aware commands do not appear right away in the
Excel 7.0 File menu. To make the commands appear,
minimize and then restore Excel or switch to another
application and back.
• OCR Aware cannot automatically paste text into Quattro
Pro; text is placed on the Clipboard instead.
• OCR Aware may not paste text into separate cells correctly
in spreadsheet applications. For best results, recognize
spreadsheet images in OmniPage Pro and then save them
