character recognition) application, such as Pro OCR.
Every day you may spend a lot of time retyping
printed text or numbers from hard copy documents.
By using Pro OCR and a scanner as an input device,
you can eliminate much of this retyping.
Features and Highlights of Pro OCR
Many of the existing OCR products are typically
capable of recognizing 200–300 plain, nonstylized
typefaces. Using recognition technology, Pro OCR
can recognize over 2,000 typefaces.
Most basic OCR applications inspect the scanned
page image, attempt to recognize the dots on the page
as characters, and transform the image into a plain
text file. Pro OCR does all of these basic tasks, but it
can also get the entire page into your word processor
or spreadsheet as is—retaining the shape, form, type,
and spacing, as well as the content, of the input page.
Pro OCR provides:
■ The ability to read one or more pages of
text including graphics. Pro OCR reads
pages directly from your scanner, or it reads
TIFF, PCX, and DCX files. Pro OCR can
automatically locate pictures and embed them
in your document. You can also export
pictures separately in a number of file formats.
■ Speed and accuracy of recognition. With
most documents, Pro OCR is faster than, and
as accurate as a good typist.
■ Numeric regions. You can specify that a
given region on a page can contain only
numbers. Numeric regions help Pro OCR
make sure that numbers are always recognized
as numbers and never mistakenly identified as
