Finereader Sprint OCR | Mitsubishi Electronics DV1248ST instruction

6. FINEREADER SPRINT OCR

FineReader is an omnifont OCR (Optical Character Recognition) system. This means that, without preliminary training, it can deal with text of practically any quality, printed with any font. With your scanner and FineReader, you can scan and recognise the text in a document and save the result as an electronic text file instead of painstakingly re-entering the text with your keyboard.

This chapter will give you a general instruction on how to use the quick scanning and recognition function provided by Fine Reader. For detailed description on Fine Reader’s features and advanced functions, please refer to the electronic user’s manual under the Fine Reader directory on the software disc.
