Figure 3.1 The machine readable zone
The document support area of the D SCAN Authenticator goes beyond the ICAO-MRZ. In customer
specific applications, it is also possible to read zones outside the MRZ of documents which do not
meet the requirements of ICAO Doc 9303 as long as the physical conditions (font, size, printing
quality, lamination, etc.) of the document to be inspected allow this.
Position the documents
An instruction symbol (1) on the right side provides principle information for the user how to place a
document on the document support area. The correct final position is along the right (R) and the back
(B) part of the document support area.
