Scanning

Scanning with Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is like a printer in reverse.

Instead of printing what’s on the screen onto paper, OCR converts

text and numbers on a scanned page into editable text and

numbers. You can then work with the text and numbers to edit,

spellcheck, change font or type size, sort, calculate, and so forth.

You must have installed the OmniPage Pro 12 software on your

computer in order to use the OCR options with the One Touch 4.0

software and your Xerox DocuMate 272 scanner. One Touch 4.0

and OmniPage Pro 12 work together to combine scanning with

OCR processing into one integrated step. OmniPage Pro 12 is on

the Disc 2 CD that you received with your scanner in case you

haven’t installed it yet.

If OmniPage Pro 12 is installed, the OCR process is automatic

when the page format on the One Touch Properties window is a

text format, such as DOC, TEXT, XLS, RTF, and so forth.

To scan with OCR:

1. To scan using the buttons on the scanner, press the Destination

Selector until the LED is at 6, then press the Simplex or

Duplex button.

NOTE: If OmniPage Pro 12 is not installed on your computer,

items scanned as a text format are still converted with the OCR

process, however the options available with the process are

then limited.

NOTE: One Touch Button 6 is preset as your OCR button. But

you can also set up any other button to scan and OCR the text.
