§ Automatically detect fax, dot matrix, and other degraded documents and compensate accordingly.
§ Import all image file formats supported by LEADTOOLS.
§ Increase recognition accuracy with built-in lexical classes and user-defined lexicons (dictionaries).
§ Learn, save and load character recognition data for similar documents. The software learns as a result of normal recognition, and acquires additional information by using the OCR's text verification system.
§ Process both text and halftone graphics. The recognition software's ability to distinguish halftone graphics from text can provide the basis of a compound document processing system.
§ Recognize and export text to more than 40 different formats, including MS Word, MS Excel, Dbase and WordPerfect.
§ Recognize over 110 languages, including languages that use the Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, and related alphabets. Basic support includes English, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, or Swedish.
§ Recognize text from 5 to 72 points in virtually any typeface.
§ Recognize entire-page area as one zone, or specify and recognize zones within each page.
§ Segment complex pages manually or automatically into text zones, image zones, table zones, lines, headers and footers.
§ Recognize 9-pin draft dot-matrix printouts with the DOT module.
§ Recognize fixed-font texts (MICR or E-13B, OCR-A, OCR-B, etc.) with the MAT module.
§ Recognize machine-generated texts using MTX, FRX, MOR and the PLUS2W and PLUS3W omnifont modules.
§ Set accuracy thresholds prior to recognition to control the accuracy of recognition.
§ Specify a different recognition module for each zone in the same page.
§ Specify dictionary and spell-checking languages for subsystem checking.
§ Verify or correct text during the recognition process based on confidence levels set prior to recognition. If a word or character falls within the set range, a dialog box can be brought up to allow the user to see the original image and the preliminary results of the recognition. From the dialog box, the user may make any necessary corrections to the recognized text.
