ABBYY® FineReader 14 User’s Guide
· Fast recognition
This mode is recommended for processing large documents with simple layouts and good quality
images.
Print type
Specifies the type of device that was used for printing the document. See also: Document features to
consider prior to OCR .
Detect structural elements
Select the structural elements you want the program to detect: headers and footers, footnotes, tables of
contents, and lists. The selected elements will be clickable when the document is saved.
Barcodes
If your document contains barcodes and you wish them to be converted into strings of letters and digits
rather than saved as pictures, select Convert barcodes into strings. This feature is disabled by
default.
Patterns and languages
Recognition with training is used to recognize the following types of text:
· Texts with special symbols (e.g. mathematical symbols)
· Text with decorative elements
· Large volumes of text from low-quality images (over 100 pages)
Training is disabled by default. Enable Use training to recognize new characters and ligatures to
train ABBYY FineReader while performing OCR.
You can use either built-in or your own patterns for recognition.
You can save and load settings for user patterns and languages. See also: OCR project .
