ABBYY® FineReader 14 User’s Guide
Checking recognized text
You can edit recognized text either directly in the Text pane or in the Verification dialog box
(clickRecognize > Verify Text... to open this dialog box). In the Verification dialog box, you can review
low-confidence words, correct spelling errors, and add new words to the user dictionary.
Checking texts in the Text pane
You can check, edit, and format OCR results in the Text pane.
The toolbar of the Text pane contains buttons that let you check the spelling in recognized texts. Use
the / buttons to go to the next/previous low-confidence word or character. If the low-confidence
characters are not highlighted, click the button on the toolbar at the top of the Text window.
To verify a low-confidence word in the Text pane:
1. Click the word in the Text pane. The image area with this word will be highlighted in the Image
pane. At the same time, the Zoom pane will display a magnified image of the word.
2. Correct the word in the Text window, if necessary.
Tip. You can insert symbols that are not on available on your keyboard by clicking the button.
Alternatively, use the Verification dialog box.
This method is convenient when you need to compare the source and output documents.
The text formatting tools can be found:
· on the toolbar at the top of the Text pane
· in the Text Properties pane (right-click anywhere in the Text pane and then click Properties on
the shortcut menu to display this pane)
Use the / buttons to move around the Text Properties pane if the Text window is too narrow
and you cannot see the entire pane.
To learn how you can change the appearance of the main window and the tools available on its
toolbars, see OCR Editor Window and Toolbars .
