Pause After Every Page
24 Commands and Settings
Rotate Tools
Click these tools if you placed a page wrongly in your scanner. You can
rotate the image 180° or 90° clockwise or counter-clockwise. You don't
need to replace the page in your scanner; Direct will recognize the text if it
appears correctly oriented in the image window.
Pause After Every Page
Select this if you are scanning multiple pages and you may want to change
settings for different pages.
For example, imagine you are scanning a magazine article that stretches
over several pages. You select
Partial Page
because you don't want to
recognize all the advertisements that are on the page. You also select
Pause
after every page
because each page has a different text/ad layout and you
will have to select different parts of each page. After each page is scanned,
you'll be able to draw different zones or change settings in the Options
dialog box.
Port Address
With some scanner installations, you'll need to type information about
your scanner's port address, speed, or other parameters. If the
Hardware
Options
section of the Scanners dialog box is gray, you don't have to do
anything.
If
Hardware Options
is not gray, check your scanner's documentation for
how to determine your scanner's port address and other parameters.
These parameters are usually included at the end of the
DEVICE=YOUR_SCANNER entry in your CONFIG.SYS file.
Recognize
Click this button to start the recognition process after you've selected
zones.
If you want to change the zones or settings after clicking
Recognize
, click
the
Adjust
button.
Register Application
Direct is designed to automatically work with Windows applications
installed on your hard disk when you install Direct. As you install new
applications, you can set them up to work with Direct by registering the
applications and designating the application type: whether the application
is a word processor or a spreadsheet.
