Correction of Recognized Character Data

As the recognition cannot be perfect for all business cards, some revision of the recognized results may be necessary. This chapter describes how to correct the recognition results.

Some notice before data correction:

• If the orientation of the characters in the front side are incorrect, correct the orientation by click-
	ing	as shown Section 1.4. Then try again.
• If front side of the business card is shown in right side (or lower side) of the Image View win-
	dow, swap the images by clicking		, and try the recognizing again (See Section 5.1).
• If a photo or logo is near the character a miss-recognition may occur. In this case, exclude the
	image area by using the rectangle selection method (Section 5.2 or 5.3), and try recognition
	again.

• If character recognition still does not succeed, enter the correct character(s) manually.

•The items to be recognized can be changed. See Section 6.2.
