zMake sure to cover the entire character string when marking it.Mark sections so that the entire section is evenly colored.zDo not mark more than ten sections per page.Good example:
Bad example 1:
(does not cover
entire section)
Bad example 2:
(unevenly colored)
zWhen you use colors such as pink or yellow for marking, the marked sections may not be
recognized as keywords. In that case, try using a blue or a green highlight pen.
zUse a blue highlight pen for documents with dark background colors such as newspapers.
Marked sections may not be detected when a color other than blue is used.
zFor the following document types, marked sections cannot be recognized and set as
keywords:
- Color documents such as catalogues or pamphlets
- Documents in which two or more colors are used for marking
- Documents containing colors other than for marking (pens other than highlight pens are
used or the document is stained)
- Documents with too many marked sections on a single page
zThe following types of marked character strings cannot be set as keywords:
- The size of marked section is outside the supported range
- Character strings framed by highlight pen
- The marking is irregular (e.g. skewed)
- Multiple marked sections are too close to each other
- The color of the highlight pen is too pale or the color has faded
zWhen you mark more than one character string, make sure to leave a gap of at least 5 mm
between the marked sections. Marked sections that are too close to each other may be
detected as one marked section.
zIn the following case, character strings surrounding marked sections may be set as
keywords:
- Marked section overlaps the line above and below
zIn the following cases, unmarked character strings may be set as keywords:
- Color documents such as catalogues or pamphlets
- Documents with color text, diagrams, pictures, tables and lines
- Documents containing sections framed by highlight pen
- Stained documents
zIncrease the resolution when you have trouble setting the keywords correctly.
