As the table below illustrates in BERTL’s test, which in- cludes multiple fonts, font colors, and font sizes, the Text mode delivered an image that required considerably less user intervention after the initial OCR read evaluation had been carried out, especially at the lower 200 dpi resolu- tion.

The level of accuracy at 200 dpi Text mode was good with 6 point reporting a 90 percent accuracy rate at all four scan test settings with a clean 100 percent conversion at 8 point.

The 300 dpi Text mode delivered, as expected, even bet- ter results with 6 point achieving a 100 percent accuracy rating with even 4 point reaching over 60% accuracy rat- ing.

As the table illustrates, Text/Photo mode did not fair as well in either the 200 dpi or 300 dpi mode test patterns.

That being said, the most important figures to look for in general office OCR are the 10-point Times New Roman and Arial fonts in black that are the most frequently used font styles in day-to-day correspondence. In both of these font settings, the Ricoh Aficio MP1350 delivered a perfect 100 percent OCR conversion, with only 200dpi text/photo failing to hit the same 100% accuracy on blue and red fonts.
