Scanning with Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) converts text and numbers on a scanned page into editable text and
numbers. You can then work with the text and numbers to edit, spell check, change font or type size, sort,
calculate, and so forth.
The One Touch OmniPage Module or the OMniPage Pro software must be installed on your computer in
order to use the OCR options with the One Touch software and your Xerox Travel Scanner 100. The
One Touch OmniPage Module was automatically installed when you installed your driver from the
installation disc. The
One Touch OmniPage Mini-Guide
is available on the installation disc. Please refer to
that mini-guide for detailed instructions.
To scan with OCR:
1. Open the One Touch Properties window.
2. Select a text editing program in the Select Destination list, then select a text file format in the Select
Format panel.
For example, if you want to edit your document in Microsoft’s Word, select that application then
choose a file format such as TEXT, RTF or DOC.
3. Click on
OK
to save the changes and close the One Touch Properties window.
4. Place a document in the paper feed slot of the scanner. The scanner starts scanning.
Your scanned pages appear in the Destination Application with the text ready for editing and other
text processing.
NOTE:
Xerox recommends that all OCR processing use the original factory settings for OCR scanning that
came with your scanner. When scanning with other settings, use at least 300 dpi for the resolution. If the
original documents are of poor quality or have a small type font, 400 dpi can be used as the maximum
resolution.
