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

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 exam

ple, 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.
