The sections below contain advice on improving recognition accuracy.
Disabling automatic image processing
By default, any pages you add to an OCR project are automatically recognized.
However, if your document contains text in a CJK language combined with a European language, we
recommend disabling automatic detection of page orientation and using the dual page splitting
option only if all of the page images have the correct orientation (e.g. they were not scanned upside
down).
You can enable/disable the Correct page orientation and Split facing pages options on the Image
Processing tab of the Options dialog box (click Tools > Options... to open this dialog box).
To split facing pages in Arabic, Hebrew, or Yiddish, be sure to select the corresponding OCR
language first and only then select the Split facing pages option. You can also restore the original
page numbering by selecting the Swap book pages option. See also: OCR projects .
If your document has a complex structure, we recommend disabling automatic analysis and OCR for
images and performing these operations manually.
You can turn off automatic analysis and OCR of newly added images on the Image Processing tab of
the Options dialog box (click Tools > Options... to open this dialog box).
1. Click Tools > Options... to open the Options dialog box.
2. On the Image Processing tab, clear the Automatically process page images as they are
added to the OCR Editor option.
