ABBYY® FineReader 15 User’s Guide
·
Correct trapezoid distortions *
The program will automatically detect trapezoid distortions and uneven text lines on digital
photographs and scans of books.
·
Fix inverted colors on image
When appropriate, the program will invert the colors of an image so that dark text is printed
on a light background.
·
Convert to black and white
The program will convert color images to black-and white This will greatly reduce the size of
the resulting OCR project and speed up OCR. We do not recommend black-and-white
conversion for photos, magazine pages, and texts in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
·
Remove color marks
The program will detect and remove any color stamps and marks made in pen to facilitate the
recognition of the text obscured by such marks. This option is designed for scanned
documents with dark text printed on a white background. Do not select this option for digital
photos and documents with color backgrounds.
* For digital photos only.
To display only the recommended settings, click Hide Advanced Settings.
You can disable all of these options when scanning or opening document pages and still apply any
desired preprocessing in the Image Editor of the OCR Editor. See also: If your document image has
defects and OCR accuracy is low .
