Font Creation Process
The Vision Verification module uses a tool from Cognex for Optical Character
Verification (OCV). The tool requires as a parameter the font name for the text
that is to be verified. If you do not know what the font name is and are not be able
to determine a reliable substitute, you can generate a True Type font from a
sample image to use as input for the OCV operation.
Tools and Requirements
• A good sample source representation of the font. You will need to capture a
quality image of the card side.
• A third-party tool
capable of generating a TrueType font. Datacard supplies
FontCreator Pro from High-Logic with the Vision Verification module for
creating TrueType fonts.
• A tool for capturing and creating individual bitmaps of each character in your
font that will be used for the OCV operation. Microsoft Paint is adequate for
this task.
• C
ognex license (included with the Vision Verification module).
