2. Click the 2-Read button.
3. Train your pattern - recognize one or more pages in
Train user pattern mode.
Trained characters are saved in the default pattern. Once you have completed training the
pattern, FineReader will save the pattern (Default.pat) in the current batch folder.
4. Edit your pattern.
5. Deactivate training mode (click the
Use user pattern radio button on the Recognition tab).
6. Recognize the rest of the text - click the
2-Read button.
Note:
1. To create several patterns for the same batch, use the Pattern Editor dialog (click the
Pattern Editor button on the Recognition tab or select the Tools>Pattern Editor menu
item). Create a new pattern (click the
New button in the dialog) and select it (click the Set
Active button). Working with a created pattern is no different to working with a default
pattern (see steps 1-5). Keep in mind, however, that only one pattern may be active at any
one time.
2. If you've created several patterns for the same batch, the active one will be the pattern that
was last created. The active pattern name is displayed in the status bar. To activate another
pattern, select the pattern of your choice in the pattern list in the
Pattern Editor dialog
(
Tools>Pattern Editor menu) and click the Set Active button. Then click the Use user
pattern radio button on the Recognition tab, Tools>Options menu, in the Training
group.
3. If the
Use built-in patterns option is set, FineReader will read all texts using its built-in
patterns and stop only at uncertain characters. If you are training the system to read
decorative and/or non-standard fonts (for example, Tibetan) the use of in-built patterns
may result in characters being read incorrectly. If the latter occurs, disable the use of
in-built-patterns (clear the
Use built-in patterns checkbox on the Recognition tab) and
train the system to recognize each unknown character it is likely to encounter.
How to Train a User Pattern
1. Make sure the Train user pattern radio button on the
Recognition tab (Tools>Options menu) in the Training
group is enabled.
2. Click the
2-Read button. FineReader will start recognition.
Whenever it comes across an unknown character, the
Pattern Training dialog will open, and the character
image displayed within it.
Training to recognize a character:
The frame in the top dialog window should enclose a single character, and this character must be fully
enclosed by the frame. If the frame encloses only part of a character or more than one character, click
the frame borders and move them so that the above-stated requirements are met. The and
